Unit installation
Because emphasized is faster than the NLQ mode, for some purposes
you may want to use it instead of NLQ.
Double-Strike
In the double-strike mode, the HomeWriter- prints each line
twice, with the second slightly below the first. Therefore, it is like
emphasized except that the dots are offset vertically rather than hor-
izontally. Both modes are bolder than standard printing-you can
look at the printout below and decide which one you prefer.
This is standard Printing, and
this is double-strike printing, and
this is emphasized printing.
Compressed
In the compressed mode, the HomeWriter- squeezes the dots
together horizontally to make each letter narrower. With this mode,
over 130 characters (instead of 80) will fit on a standard eight-inch
line.
This is standard printing, and
this is compressed printing.
SelecType Operation
SelecType lets you use the Epson typestyles discussed above
whether or not your word processing or business program supports
them.
For example, you can print the first draft of a letter or report in the
standard mode and print the final version in the NLQ mode without
putting any print codes in the document.
SelecType is also handy for selecting compressed printing to
squeeze more information on a line.
Using SelecType is a simple four-step process:
1) Turn SelecType on.
2)
Select a print function.
3) Set the function.
4) Turn SelecType off.
