Some printers can not print the plot axis labels vertically. We have seen this
on a HP IIP printer at 150 dpi. If you have a printer that is doing this, you can
use this command line option to force the printer to print the axis labels out so
you can read them. This applies to Plots and Strip Charts.
Examples:
▲
PCLINK.EXE Official -o
After loading the software, opens the station contained in the sub-directory
entitled “Official.”
▲
PCLINK.EXE Official -d -c
After loading the software, downloads and clears information from the station
contained in the sub-directory entitled “Official.”
