More Information:

The Typewriter driver is designed to send plain ASCII text to the printer, and thereby, allow printing to almost any printer. It is assumed that the printer uses standard default line spacing, producing 66 lines per 11-inch page. The Typewriter driver does support 10-pitch and 12-pitch settings, but the printer must be set to the appropriate pitch manually, using the DIP switches in the printer. Refer to your printer manual for the DIP-switch specifications.
