The microcomputer additionally manages the whole of the installation and the interaction between the latter and the user. The printer is a printer of the graphics type. The composition proper of the text to be printed is managed by a program adapted to this end and loaded into the memory of the microcomputer. The whole of the text to be printed is previously composed by the user with the aid of a program stored in the microcomputer before being printed.
