DMP 2100P  (260-1274)          Features                Faxback Doc. # 4545

The DMP-2100P is a high-density dot matrix printer which can perform a
variety of different printing operations.

For instance, it can print:

* Correspondence characters (monospaced and proportional spaced).
* Standard characters (monospaced).
* Condensed characters (monospaced).
* Graphics characters.

For maximum efficiency, the DMP-2100P operates in three modes:

* Data Processing Mode for fastest output of program listings or data.
* Word Processing Mode for letter-writing or the creation of any text
  documentation.
* Graphics Mode (regular and high-resolution) for drawing pictures, figures,
  or graphs.

For word or data processing, you'll find the  DMP-2100P's Correspondence or
Proportional spaced characters (created on a variable n x 24 dot matrix) 
can produce letter-quality results.

If, however, you need a print-out that is produced faster, Standard charac-
ters (created on a 13 x 24 dot matrix) are just the thing for you!

In the regular Graphics Mode, you can use graphic data with a 3 x 3 dot 
matrix to draw just about any type of graphic configuration you desire.

In addition, the DMP-2100P has the ability to print high-resolution dot 
image graphics. This is accomplished by using a high-resolution graphics 
command and a 2/15" line feed command which can be used in any of the 
three modes.

With your DMP-2100P, you can create your own font pattern for each of the 
159 character codes and store this pattern as a font. The function which 
allows you this capability is called Down Line Loading (DLL). 
(See chapter 8 and Appendix F for details.)

With the versatile DMP-2100P, you can determine not only character style 
and printing mode, but you can also select the code set (control code seq-
uence) and character set.
