SelecType

At the end of the introduction you saw samples of the typestyles

available on your 

LX-80. In this chapter you’ll learn how Epson’s

SelecType feature puts the most-used print modes at your fingertips.

With a few taps on the panel buttons of the LX-80, you can change

your printing from

to the more detailed

or any of several other possibilities.

The LX-80 printer’s many print modes give you a great choice of

width, weight, and style of characters. You can activate these modes
in several different ways, depending on your needs and the capabili-
ties of your software. The most common ways include placing print-
ing codes in your document, using a programming language such as
BASIC, and giving print commands as part of the printing instruc-

tions for your software.

Often the SelecType feature is the easiest way to choose print

modes on the LX-80. This feature changes the function of the three

buttons on top of your printer-ON LINE, FF, and LF. After turn-
ing on the SelecType mode, you can use the buttons to choose one or

more of six separate functions. The functions include five typestyles

and a reset code.
