Pattern Prints as (Overlapping dots) In double-density mode at High Speed Figure 11-1. High-Speed Double-Density dots To check this out, change the pin patterns in line 30 from 85 to 127, the sum of the labels for pins 1 through 7: 30 B$=CHR$(127)+CHR$(42) As Figure 11-2 shows, the repeated dots, the ones called for by the CHR$(42)--pins 2, 4, and 6--are not printed at all. The print head is moving too fast to retract the pins and then instantly fire them again, so the FX's program suppresses them. Figure 11-2. No overlapping dots 147
