Star Micronics NX-10 user manual Lprint this Line is LEFT-ALIGNED

f-w

In this program we set tabs at 10 and 20 in channel 1 in line

20.In line 30 we set tabs 15 and 25 in channel 2, and in line 40 we set tabs 17 and 28 in channel 3.

Because the channels are stored, you must make the printer to recall one before you use it, so we used (ESC)“I”CHR$(nU) in line 80.

CENTERING AND ALIGNING TEXT

Text can be arranged in any of three formats: left aligned (nor- mal printing with “ragged” right margin), centered between the margins, or right aligned. These are selected by the following commands.

		Table 4- 11
		Aligning commands
Function		Control code
Left-aligned	printing	(ESC)“a”CHR$(O)
Centered printing		(ESC)“a”CHR$(l)
Right-aligned	printing	(ESC)“a”CHR$(2)

Try this program to see how easy it is.
