Selecting Character Sets
By changing the setting of the DIP switches, you can select one of
eight international character sets and one of two character tables.
Once you have set the DIP switches for a certain character set, that
set is the default character set; it remains valid even after the printer
is turned off, reset, or intialized. Software commands however,
override DIP switch settings until they are cancelled or the printer is
turned off, reset, or intialized.
To change the setting of a DIP switch, first turn off the printer.
Set the DIP switch, and then turn the printer back on.
Choosing a character set
Selection of a character set provides you with the characters used
in other languages or with legal symbols. To obtain the desired
character set, set switches l-l, 1-2, and l-3 according to the DIP
switch table on page 3-8.
The following table shows the characters in each character set.
