Printing Your Work
Once you have set up your printer and software correctly, it
requires only a simple action to print a file from within a Windows
application. Follow these steps:
1 Turn your printer on if it's not already on.
2 Choose Print from the File menu of your Windows
application.

3 Click OK to print.
That's all there is to it. Depending on your application, you may
see different messages indicating the status of your print job.
How to Prepare Diskettes for Use
Formatting makes it possible to use a diskette. You don't really
need to know what's going on when you format a diskette, but if
you're interested, the details are covered in "How Does a Disk
Store Information?" on page 228.
You can buy two types of diskettes: pre-formatted and unformat-
ted. If you've purchased pre-formatted diskettes, you don't need
the information in this section because the diskettes' manufacturer
has taken care of the process for you. If the package doesn't say
anything about formatting, your diskettes are probably
unformatted.
