Re: Printing on Laser printer

Dumb question ... are your laser printers capable of bold printing & how does 
the AS/400 program accomplish the bold printing in printer command terms.  
Most of the bold printing that I have programmed for AS/400 line printers is 
via telling it to print something with ZERO vertical movement of forms then 
print selected info from that same line again ... are your laser printers 
capable of printing a line of info WITHOUT vertical movement of the forms?

We have some low priced $200.00 PC printers attached to our PCs and to some 
equally low priced dumb terminals, in which those printers are not capable of 
all the features of our high speed AS/400 printers.

When you want it cheap - you get what you paid for.
When in doubt, read the manual, assuming you can find the right one.
