overprinting ASCII on Laserjet?
I have been trying to print out one of the OLD line printer type posters
on my HP Laserjet. I have tried a bunch of Escape code combination to
make it treat a CR(Carriage return) as what it should be (reset to left
margin, but do not advance the line). But no matter how I set Line
Termination, it always prints a line, hits the CR, and advances the
line. I know the printer is taking my Escape sequences, because I can
set it to 8 lines an inch.
So, is it even possible to "overprint" with a laser printer?
