Epson HX-20 User Manual

Now you’ve learned enough to make the LCD screen display text

and graphics. At some point, you may decide that you’d like to save
a copy of what you see on the screen.

You can make a  hard copy  of the LCD screen whenever you’d

like. To do  so,  you’ll use one of the  specialfunction  keys. which are

located just above the row of numeric keys on your HX-20
keyboard.

To print a copy of the LCD screen, just hold down the 

 

key

(located at the left edge of the keyboard) and press function

key 

 

. The HX-20’s built-in printer will activate and print a hard

copy of the LCD display. (If 

 does not activate the

printer, make sure that the printer has paper in it, and that the

PRINTER ON-OFF switch, located just above the 

 key, is in

the ON position.)

Once you’ve printed the screen, you may pull on the paper to

b r i n g   y o u r   p r i n t o u t   i n t o   v i e w .   ( O r   y o u   m a y   h o l d   d o w n
the 

 key for this purpose-but that’s slow, and uses battery

power. Pulling on the paper will harm nothing as long as the printer
is inactive.)

Note that 

causes the printer to print a copy of the

LCD  screen, not the entire  virtual  screen. If you want hard copy of

the entire virtual screen, you must scroll the LCD window through

each portion of the virtual screen, and use 

 to print each

portion of the virtual screen that you display in this manner.
