Subj: LEFT MARGIN:DMP105
Does anyone know how to send a left-margin setting to a Tandy DMP-105 printer? I've tried two ways: Using the printer manual: a left margin string is not listed but there is a "print head positioning" command. I am having no luck with that. It works if I create a short program with an "lprint" to text in the same program, but the printer will not "hold" the left margin string when printing a text using the "shift print" keys. Using a program: (other than UR-II: this excellent ROM chip works fine of course but there are applications where'd I'd rather not use it.) There's a program on this BBS called DMP105.BA that does set the left margin but it also formats my text so all the lines are one word long! If I could isolate the lines of the program that set the left margin this might help me, but I don't know that much about programming. Thanks, Paul.
