Printing

Printing Options

• Whenever the Print button is clicked, or CTRL+P keyboard shortcut used, a pop-up menu will show with 3 choices:

  • Basic
  • Epson ESC/P
  • Postscript PS
     
    

• Basic sends the document to the printer on LPT1. Only unformatted, monospaced, plain text will be printed.

• ESC/P will send the document to a printer on LPT1 using ESC/P commands with full font formatting and styling. Most dot matrix printers through the 80s and 90s will support this.

  • Sample Print-out printed on an Epson LQ-570 dot matrix printer (and scanned). I'm still working on perfecting the ESC/P output.

• PS will create a Postscript file in the export sub-directory. This is a formatted document and you can easily move it to a modern machine and print from there or convert to PDF.

  • Sample Postscript document produced by Launch! and converted to PDF.
