When you press the

ON/OFF LINE

button to select an additional

mode, start counting again where you left off. That is, if you have

selected emphasized and wish to combine that with elite, press the

ON/OFF LINE

button three more times, not four, to select elite. For

example, follow these steps to combine emphasized and elite:

1. Press the

ON/OFF LINE

button once to select emphasized.

2. Press the

FORM FEED

button.

3. Press the

ON/OFF LINE

button three more times to select elite. (The

mode is four, but remember that you have already pressed the

ON/OFF LINE

button once.)

4. Press the

FORM FEED

button.

5. Press the

LINE FEED

button.

6. Press the

ON/OFF LINE

button, and you are ready to print.

Note

Some application programs are designed to control all typestyle

functions. These programs cancel previous typestyle settings by sending

certain printer codes before printing. Because these codes cancel

SelecType settings, you will have to use the program’s print options

function instead of SelecType to select your typestyles. Therefore, if

SelecType does not work with a particular application program, consult

its manual on how to select typestyles.

SelecType Tips

Once you have learned the simple technique for controlling print

styles with SelecType, you can use it whenever you wish. You should

be aware of a few points, however.

l

SelecType is designed to control the printing of an entire file or

document, not an individual line or word.

l

If you are using the NLQ mode, remember that the following

SelecType modes are not available: double-strike and condensed.
