Select subscript from the printer codes menu but enter the codes to turn NLQ on and off when you are asked to supply the codes for subscript beginning and ending. For the code to turn on NLQ, type esc x 1 and for the code to turn NLQ off, type esc x 0. (For esc press the esc key; do not type the three letters.) When you finish the pro- cess, AppleWorks will turn on NLQ whenever you choose subscript beginning and will turn NLQ off whenever you choose subscript end. (See Appendix C for the codes for other Apple IIc PIC features.) Cancelling modes If you want to cancel the modes you have set with SelecType, you can turn your printer off and back on with the power switch on the right side of the printer. This cancels all SelecType settings, returns your LX-90 to its defaults, resets the top of page, and empties the contents of the buffer, including any user-defined characters that you have stored there. Occasionally you may wish to cancel one or more modes with SelecType instead of resetting the printer with power switch. To cancel all modes controlled by SelecType, simply enter SelecType mode and then press the FF button without pressing the ON LINE button. This is useful when you make a mistake while setting codes and want to start over again, and it does not interfere with top of page, user-defined characters, or other items that are not controlled by SelecType. If you do make a mistake while using SelecType, just press the LF button to turn off SelecType and then turn it on again and press the FF button before you press the ON LINE button. In fact, some users like to use the FF button to cancel any previous SelecType setting each time they use SelecType. If you want to be absolutely certain that no previous settings interfere with your use of SelecType, always press the FF button once immediately after you enter SelecType mode. For this procedure, after you press the ON LINE and FF buttons to turn on SelecType, press the FF button once, and then make and set your selection or selections as outlined in Chapter 2. You can also cancel individual modes with SelecType if you wish. You do this with the same procedure that sets them. When a mode is already set, selecting it again cancels it, as demonstrated in the example below. E-3
