Using bit image graphics, you can draw almost any kind of illustration with your printer.

Bit image graphics mode enables your printer to draw almost any kind of illustration by printing a dot at any location on the page. Your IBM- compatible MICROLINE will work properly with any graphics software package designed for the IBM Personal Computer and IBM Graphics Printer. No software modification is required; images will be printed without distortion.

If you have IBM DOS you can use a software package (or BASIC commands such as CIRCLE, LINE, and DRAW) to create an image on the display screen (your software or BASIC manual will explain how), then dump it on to the page via the Prt Sc command key on your computer. The next section, Screen Dumps, gives some examples.

The section called Programming Bit Image Graphics explains what you need to know in order to write your own graphics programs in BASIC without using the screen dump method.

Screen Dumps

This feature lets you print a reproduction of any image on your display screen. Simply press the SHIFT key and the Prt Sc key at the same time; whatever is on the screen will be printed on the page.
