WordStar 6.0
If you want to print a character from the IBM extended
character set, follow the steps below:
1. Press ^P and then press 0.
2. WordStar displays a matrix containing all the characters in
the set that are not available on your keyboard.
3. Type the number corresponding to the character you want,
and press Enter.
4. Press Esc to exit the menu.
To print other characters:
Hold down the Alt key and type the decimal number on the
numeric keypad that corresponds to the character in the symbol
set.
For example, if your printer is using the Roman-8 symbol set
and you want to enter the yen sign, hold down the Alt key and
press 188.
Enhancing Print Quality
If your printing is slightly too light or too dark or if it is not
quite as crisp as it should be, first make sure you are using
smooth, high-quality paper. (See Chapter 2, “Paper Handling,”
for more details on paper.)
If your paper is not the problem, try adjusting the print density
using SelecType Level 2. Additionally, if you have an
ActionLaser 1500 printer, try changing the Resolution
Improvement Technology setting described later in this section.
