Character set commands
With the help of the following control commands, it is possible to change bet-
ween the different character sets of the printer. Furthermore, your own charac-
ters can be defined as dot patterns and stored in the memory of the printer.
Command Function
ESC % (n) Switching on/ off the character set defined by
the user
ESC & (n) (n) (m) Transferring the character definition
ESC 4 Switching on italic print
ESC 5 Switching off italic print
ESC 6 Switching on extended character set
ESC 7 Switching off extended character set
ESC : NUL (n) NUL Copying the character set into the RAM
ESC R (n) Selecting the national character set
ESC t (n) Selecting the character set
By means of CSI sequences, further character sets with specially defi-
ned font qualities can be selected (see the additional command
CSI n # q in the “Additional commands” chapter). Character fonts sel-
ected in this way are treated as normal LQ type fonts, that is to say, all
standard commands (print quality, character size, types of print) also
work on these character sets in the way described in the “Standard
commands” chapter.
General notes on the command description can be found in the “Stan-
dard commands” chapter in the sections “Description components”,
“Coding of decimal command parameters” and “Program examples”.
