By combining expanded print with the four pitches, SG-lo/15
has eight different character widths available.
Enter this program to see how the print pitches and expanded
print can be combined:
18 'Demo pitches in combination with expanded mode.
241 LPRINT CHR$(27) "W" CHR$(l) ; 'Permanent expanded
mode on.
39) LPRINT CHR$(27) "B" CHR$(3) ; 'Select condensed
pitch. -
40 LPRINT "This line is EXPANDED CONDENSED pitch."
5@ LPRINT CHR$(27) "B" CHR$(2) ; 'Select elite pitch.
60 LPRINT "This is EXPANDED ELITE." -
74) LPRINT CHR$(27) "B" CHR$(l) ; 'Select pica pitch.
80 LPRINT "This is EXPANDED PICA." -
90 LPRINT CHR$(27) "p" CHR$(l) ; 'Select proportional
100 LPRINT "This is EXP. PROPORTIONAL."
110 LPRINT CHR$(27) "p" CHR$(fl) ; 'Cancel proportional.
120 LPRINT CHR$(27) "W" CHR$(Q)) ; 'Permanent expanded
mode off.
130 LPRINT "This is UNEXPANDED PICA pitch (default)."
If you are using with the IBM mode, change the following lines
to the program given above.
30 LPRINT CHR$(27) CHR$(l5) ; 'Select condensed pitch.
50 LPRINT CHR$(27) "M" ; 'Select elite pitch.
70 LPRINT CHR$(27) "P" ; 'Select pica pitch.
Here’s what you should get from this program: -
This line is EXPANDED CONDENSED pitch.
This i5 EXF’4hNDED El-El-Em -
'Thi55 is EXF=.ANDEC, F’ICA, -
This is EXP, Pl3ClPCJF3TION~L-
This is IJNEXPANDED PICA pi tch (def acrl t ) .
MAKING SG-lo/15 PRINT DARKER
SC-lo/l5 has very good print density when it’s just printing
regularly. But sometimes you may want something to stand out
from the rest of the page. SG-IO/l5 provides two ways to do
this: double-strike and emphasized print. Both of these go over
