PRINT  DIRECTION

         LEGEND:  Ec = [Ctrl] [P] [Esc] in DOS EDIT
     
     The Print Direction command rotates the logical page
     with respect to the current orientation without
     performing a page eject.  This rotation is performed in
     90 degree increments in a counter-clockwise direction
     and allows printing in four directions on the same
     page.

COMMAND:

     Ec&a#P                        This command allows the
                                   print to be rotated in
                                   increments of 90 degrees.
                                   All other values are
                                   ignored.
