The files included are the .com file for setting up your printer and the
assembly source with the related files for those who want to know how it
works. This is from a Charles Petzold listing in PC World.
To use, just enter the command:
PSET [optional decimal characters]
where the 'optional decimal characters' are numeric commands for your printer.
There is no limit as to how many commands you can string, but they must be
compatible. That is you cannot specify both pica and elite type fonts and
expect any results!
Remember to use only decimal characters. Many printer manuals use hex
notation and that won't work properly.
This program is short and simple and has no error checking qualities. If you
enter, say a non-numeric string character, you will end up confusing your
printer and will get some pretty interesting but unproductive results. You
might lock up your system too.
Enjoy experimenting and live free...............
