MPS 802 GUIDE. ALL OF THE 802 PROGRAMS . REQUIRE A COMMODORE 64 A 1541. DISK DR IVE AND A COMMODORE. PRINTER (THEY HAVE BEEN TRIED. ON AN MPS-8O2 AND MPS-1OOO. WHICH IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE. MPS-8O1 AN D 8O3)..***. THE FIRST LOT OF PROGRAMS . RELATE TO THE MPS-8O2. IN THE. ARTICLE S BY D.HARE TITLED 'MORE. NOURISHMENT FO R THE MPS-8O2' ONE. THING HE FAILED TO D O WAS TO. ENABLE THE 8O2 TO PRINT GRAPHI CS. CREATED IN 'THE NEWSROOM.' THESE. PR OGRAMS RECTIFY THIS PROBLEM. AND THERE A RE A FEW VERY HELPFUL. MACHINE LANGUAGE ROUTINES THROWN. IN..***. AFTER TYPING AND SAVING THEM. USING THE TABLE BELOW LOAD 'THE. NEWSROOM' AND CREATE YOUR SCR EEN.. SAVE NORMALLY AND MAKING SURE IT. IS ON THE SCREEN PRESS THE RESET. BUTTON . IF YOU DON'T HAVE A RESET. BUTTON BUY A PLUG THAT WILL FIT. THE USER PORT AND A MOMENTARY. CONTACT SINGLE POLE SWITCH. THEN. SOLDER THE PINS OF THE SWITCH TO. PINS ONE (1) AND THREE (3) OF. THE PLUG ..***. FIT THE PLUG TO THE. PORT AND SWI TCH THE COMPUTER ON.. IF NOTHING HAPPENS SWITCH OFF. AND CHECK THAT YOU HAVE THE RIGHT. CONNECTIONS. IF ALL IS WELL PRES S. THE BUTTON AND THE COMPUTER. SHOULD R ESET. .. THEN LOAD THE LOADER PROGRAM. AND RUN IT. FROM HERE ON IN. EVERYTHING IS MENU BASED AND YOU. SHOULDN'T EXPERI ENCE. DIFFICULTIES. WHEN THE SCREEN. STA RTS GOING FUNNY - DON'T WORRY. IT WILL R ETURN TO NORMAL AFTER. PRINTING HAS FINI SHED..***. ONE TIP: MAKE SURE THE DISK . WITH ALL THE PROGRAMS IS IN THE. DRIVE OTHERWISE THE COMPUTER. WILL CRASH (WIT H THE EXCEPTION . OF SAVING & LOADING SC REENS)..***. THE NEXT FOUR PROGRAMS RE QUIRE. A DISK DRIVE AND ANY PRINTER. .. THEY PRINT AFTER READING THE. DIRECTOR IES OF THE DISK (SIDES. ONE & TWO) A LIS TING OF THE. DIRECTORIES (ONE NEXT TO TH E. OTHER) TO STICK ON THE FRONT OF. THE DISK COVER AS IN 'DUMP. DIRECTORY' OR A COMPLETE COVER. AS IN 'DUMP DIRECTORY. A ND BORDER.'.***. THE OTHER TWO DO THE SAME. ONLY THEY READ ONE SIDE ONLY. AND PRINT THE DIRECTORY DIVIDED. IN HALF EIT HER WITHOUT A COVER. OR WITH ONE... MA Y I SUGGEST YOU USE GLOSSY. PAPER FOR YO UR NEW COVERS AS. NORMAL PRINTER PAPER G IVES. OFF DUST..***. THE LAST SET OF P ROGRAMS LETS. ANY COMMODORE PRINTER PRIN T SIGNS.. 'SIGN WRITER' IS THE ACTUAL. P RINTER OF THE SIGNS WHILE THE.
