Printing A Hex Dump
A hex code printout (or hex dump) is a translation of all host
interface data to its hexadecimal equivalent, listing all ASCII
character data received from the host computer with their
corresponding two-digit hexadecimal codes. Hex dumps are used
to troubleshoot printer data reception problems.
Printable characters print as the assigned symbol; nonprintable
characters are indicated by a period (.).
Figure 27 shows an example of a hex dump.
