Check out the supplied example program UNICODEP.BBC (in the EXAMPLES\GENERAL folder). That shows how to print Unicode text to your printer using BBC BASIC.

Also note the supplied add-in utility Paste Unicode which is handy for pasting foreign-language characters into your program. For example, you could try replacing the Greek or Russian text with some Turkish text.

Here's an example of printing Turkish text (copy-and-paste it into BB4W):

Code:

      VDU 23,22,720;480;8,16,16,128+8 : REM Select UTF-8 mode
      
      *PRINTERFONT Times New Roman,24
      *MARGINS 10,10,10,10
      
      VDU 2,21 : REM Enable printer, disable screen
      
      turkish$ = "Başlılara baş eğdirmiş, dizlilere diz çöktürmüş."
      
      PRINT turkish$
      
      VDU 12,6,3 : REM Eject sheet, enable screen, disable printer
