SUMMARY

You can use the {print} field with a dot-matrix printer only if the commands sent in the {print} field do not take the printer out of graphics mode.

Note: Most commands sent to a dot-matrix printer through the {print} field will take the printer out of graphics mode. For a list of commands that will not take the printer out of graphics mode, consult your printer owner's manual or contact the manufacturer.

For more information on the {print} field, refer to Page 104 of the "Microsoft Word for Windows User's Reference" guide.
