flexibility to accommodate almost any printer. Printer setup begins by selecting a
printer.

Select your printer from the list provided. If it is not on the list, you can select

to access the

screen where you can assign it

a name, initialization string, and print control codes.

If your printer is on the list provided and does not function properly or as you
would like it to (possibly from being an older model with slightly different control
codes), you can select

Edit<F3>

to modify the control codes.
