If you're using the program's print facility recheck the EX's Command Summary to make sure you're sending the correct commands. q If you're still having difficulty printing, check the troubleshooting section in your spreadsheet program's manual or Appendix D of this manual. Graphics Programs The EX is capable of producing finely detailed graphic images in black or in color (with the optional color kit). Chapter 6 gives specific information on the graphics commands, but the easiest way to take advantage of the EX's capabilities is with one of the many graphics programs available. When buying graphics software, always. make sure it has a suitable option to allow printouts on an EX printer. Any program with an option for an EX or FX printer should give excellent results in black and white, using different dot densities to produce a realistic scale of grays. If you have installed a color option kit, look for software that has an option for the EX or for the Epson JX-80 color printer. Most graphics programs have a printer selection procedure, in which case you should check the lists on page 3-1 to find the proper selection. Most users rely on application programs to send commands to the printer. An awareness of programming languages, however, can be helpful in exploring a printer's potential or troubleshooting a printing problem. For example, if you want to set up your application program to send a command for italic printing, you can use a programming language, such as BASIC or Pascal, to do a quick printout before setting up the program. 3-6 Using the EX with Application Programs
