ended in vain. 
  According to the Imagewriter's manual, the size of character can be changed into 
ultracondensed mode(17cpi) by sending (ESCAPE 27 & "Q"). I wrote a program as follows.
         : IESC=27;IQ=81;write(6,100) IESC,IQ;100 FORMAT(2A2) : 
But it could not change the character size. However,it could be done with MS-BASIC 
using the following program.
         : LPRINT CHR$(27);"Q" :
 When printing from MacFortran, 'Printer Dialog Box' always appears, but it doesn't
appear from MS-BASIC. I want to know how to make it without changing the dip switches 
of printer.     
         Anyone help me?
