It is suggested to use _PRINTSTRING instead of PRINT in graphics modes and not in SCREEN 0. Also the ancient functions which are "PRINT helpers", SPC(), TAB() and USING were designed to be used only with PRINT in SCREEN 0.
Use SPACE$() function instead of SPC(). Have to do the trick to write PRINT USING output to a file, then read it back into a string, to be able to use _PRINTSTRING with it. One of my longest feature requests is "USING$()" because some people hate C/C++ which doesn't make "sprintf()" an option, and also "Format()" from Visual Basic isn't good enough.
