OSBYTE &05 (5) - Select the printer type.
On entry, A=&05, X=new printer output
Controls which printer output device will be used when output is sent to the printer. This does not activate and send data to the printer. VDU 2 must be used to start output going to the selected printer channel.
The value of X is made up as follows:
| Value | Meaning if set |
|---|---|
| 0 | Selects a printer sink where characters can be lost without the possibility of the system 'hanging' with a full printer buffer. |
| 1 | Selects output to the parallel output connector. |
| 2 | Selects the serial RS423 output. |
| 3 | Selects a user-supplied printer driver. |
| 4 | Selects the Econet printer. |
