Chapter 3
Using the SQ-2000
This chapter tells you how to set up your word processor or
other applications software to work with the SQ-2000. If you are
interested in programming with the SQ-2000, the second part of
this chapter contains basic information on control codes and
ESCape sequences.
Using the SQ-2000 with Word Processors
Most word processing programs today support the SQ-2000
because it uses the same commands and control codes as many
Epson printers.
These programs usually have a setup or installation procedure
that prepares the program to work with a printer. This is often a
short question-and-answer session in which the program asks
two or three basic questions about your computer and printer. To
set up a program for use with the SQ-2000, you would give the
following answers:
Question
What type of computer
are you using?
What type of printer
are you using?
Answer
Your computer’s type
Choose LQ-1500 if listed. If not listed,
choose FX-80 or FX-100. If specific mod-
els are not listed, choose “Epson prin-
ter.” (When new printers are released, it
takes time to update the lists, so by
choosing another Epson printer, you
will still be sending the correct codes.)
