Enter and run the following program to see how the NLQ mode is

turned on by an ESCape sequence:

NEW

10 LPRINT CHR$(27)"x"CHR$(l);

20 FOR X=65 TO 105

LPRINT CHR$(X);

NEXT X: LPRINT

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]ˆ-'abcdefghi

Note that you use a lowercase x, not a capital X, in line

10.

Because

of the high resolution of the NLQ mode, it prints only in pica, not in

elite or compressed.

All the modes demonstrated in this chapter are compared in Table

4-1.

printer.
