DIP Switches
DIP-switch functions
This section describes the functions of the DIP switches.
International character sets
You can choose from eight international character sets by setting
DIP switches 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, and 1-4 according to DIP-switch
Table 3. See the Appendix for character samples.
The character sets you can select by DIP switch are USA, France,
Germany, United Kingdom, Denmark I, Sweden, Italy, and Spain I.
However, you can also select the following sets only with the
ESC R software command: Japan (English), Norway, Denmark II,
Spain II, Latin America, Korea, and Legal.
Note: If you send the ESC t 0 command (to select italics) while
DIP switch 1-4 is on, the international character set is always
USA.
Character tables
Your printer has six character tables built-in: five graphics character
tables and one italics character table.
You can select the character tables with DIP switches 1-1, 1-2, 1-3,
and 1-4, according to Table 4.
To select a graphics character table, you must first turn DIP switch
1-4
on.
Note: If you send the ESC t 1 command (to select graphics) while
DIP switch 1-4 is off, the graphics character table is always
PC 437 (United States).
All six character tables are included in the Appendix.
