Either "U1:2 0 18 1" or "U1:"2;0;18;1 will work. These commands are
formatted by the print statement just as they would be if they were sent
to a printer or to the screen. What the disk drive wants to see is
U1:2 0 18 1
It wants the user command followed by 4 numbers separated by spaces. You can
use any Basic commands that results in the above being sent.
