iw2 -- set options for ImageWriter II (EXTERNAL) [v1.1]
syntax: iw2 [-n] [-1 y|n] [-b y|n] [-u y|n] [-8 y|n]
[-s y|n] [-l <integer>] [-p <integer>]
[-r y|n] [-q <integer>] [-c <integer>]
[-0 y|n] [-h <integer>] [-f <integer>]
[-i y|n] [-e <integer>] [-t] [-x]
ex: iw2 -n
iw2 -p12 -by -un
iw2 -sy -1n -l10
Sets print options, assuming an ImageWriter II is connected to
the printer slot (see 'config'). Each option is explained below:
-n (normal) reinitialize printer to power-up state
-1 y|n -1y set unidirectional printing; -1n sets bidirectional
-b y|n boldface: yes or no
-u y|n underlining: yes or no
-8 y|n eight lines per inch: yes or no (no=6 lines per inch)
-s y|n skip to new page every 60 lines: yes or no
-l # set left margin in characters (normally 0)
-p # set pitch; may be 4..10, 12, 13, 15, 17
-r y|n reverse formfeed direction; y=reverse, n=forward
-q # print quality (0=standard, 1=draft, 2=near-letter-quality)
-c # color (0..6)
-0 y|n slashed zeroes: yes or no
-t set top of form to here
[ -h nnnn form height (in n/144 inches) NOT IMPLEMENTED ]
-f # font (0=American...7=Spanish)
-x cancel unprinted text (send ctrl-x)
-i y|n ignore out-of-paper sensor: yes or no
-e # 0: enable ROM character set; 1=enable downloaded charset,
low half; 2=enable downloaded charset, high half
Note: -s and -n reset the printer's top of form, so they should be
used only when the printer is at the top of a page.
Note: In version 1.0 of 'iw2', the -f, -x, -i and -e options did
not work. Now they do.
