Now you can try other pitches. As we explained in Chapter 3, the

 

 

 

   

 

This line uses the command for elite, ESCape “M”, to turn on that

mode. Your printout should look like the one below.

The next addition to the program cancels elite with ESCape “P”

and turns on compressed with 

ASCII 15:

3 0   L P R I N T   C H R $ ( 2 7 )   “ P ” C H R $ ( 1 5 ) ;

Now run the program to see the line printed in compressed mode.

As you saw in the third version of the print pitch program, you

must cancel a code when you do not want it any more. With very few
exceptions, the LX-80 modes stay on until they are cancelled. It is
important to remember this because an LX-80 mode can stay on even

if you change from BASIC to another type of software. For example,

if you print a memo with a word processing program after you run
the program above, the printer will still be in compressed mode;
therefore, the memo will be in compressed print. To cancel compres-
sed, use ASCII 18.
