Bill: I have an Apple Imagewriter which is really just a C-8510 in disguise. There is a "set tabs" command just like you describe. All you have to do is find out what spacing Scribble uses for a tab (I don't own Scribble, or I'd tell you) and then find the "printer initialization string" that Scribble hopefully allows. Use the "set tabs" command to set the tabs for the Scribble preferred locations, and you should be all set. I use a script that I made up to do this, and just type it to the SER: port (for you, PAR:) before sending text files with tabs to the printer. Ariel
