[comp.sys.apple] GS memory expansion & Appleworks

DICKSON@HARTFORD.BITNET (04/27/87)

About the earlier letters on memory:

        Applied Engineering seems to make the best, and certainly better than
Apple.  I have a GS ram 1 meg card, and enjoy it immensely.  It came with
software to modify Appleworks 2.0 to use the memory.

        Speaking of Appleworks, I've been trying to use 1.3 on a GS with a
Grappler and an Epson lx-80.  It prints very odd-- say an 8-letter word wraps
after 3 letters.  It prints the line without any of the word, line-feeds,
prints the first three letters, line feeds, prints the last 5 letters, then
continues.  Any ideas?

                        Thanks in advance,

                        Bill Dickson

I've similar problems with getting appleworks and my lx-80 to
work together.  I finally got it to work by changing one of the
printer options.  I think it is 'interface card'.  You want to
set it to Ctrl-I 80N  
I seem to remember that this didn't fix all the problems, so I told
apple works I was using an epson fx printer instead of using the 
control characters that I gave it.
