>Taking a break from my Coco Model III project, I took some time to play with my 64k Coco1 and a serial to centronics convertor using Scriptsit (didn't want to drag the cassette player out to load TW-64) and my Okidata 320 Turbo. After about 15 minutes of fiddling with it, I was able to get the system to print single line text using the 300 baud setting. anything else would cause the printer to respond, but print jibberish. Trying to print multi line text resulted to the printer printing every line of the document on a single line, no line feeds.

Not having used Scriptsit before, I'm not sure if it is a problem with the program talking to the printer or something else. Any ideas??? (I'll be trying TW-64 later)...

Radio Shack/Tandy programs on the Coco expects the printer to
automatically do a line feed after every carriage return.
