Codepages - International Characters
Your printer has a number of international character sets built in to the printer as standard.
Depending upon the version of printer you have - which is usually related to the country the
printer was sold in - will change the number and range of character sets available.
These character sets are called codepages and will include the more common “Western” char-
acters, including accented characters used in French, German and Spanish languages, to name
but a few.
To find out what codepages your particular printer support, perform a Default Settings Report
as described in Chapter 3. This will list all available codepages.
In addition, printers contain codepages for Arabic, Cyrillic, Greek and Hebrew character sets
and languages with similarities to these.
As new character sets and codepages are constantly being developed, your printer may contain
more character sets than can be seen in this manual. It is our policy to introduce new codepages
as soon as standards have been confirmed.
For the latest details on what codepages are avialable in specific versions of printers, please
refer to the section at the beginning of the manual called “For The Latest Information”
Euro Currency Symbol
The new European Union symbol for the Euro Currency is provided in codepage “PC858” and
“ISO Latin 9”. If you are using the internal fonts of the printer, please ensure that your printer
supports this codepage and it is selected.
Also, ensure that the printer driver for your particular piece of software is “Euro enabled”.
If you are using Microsoft Windows, ensure that your version supports the Euro symbol. For the
latest information on Microsoft software or for updated information, we suggest you contact
Microsoft directly: refer to documentation supplied with your software for your nearest dealer.
