This parameter selects a character set for the Epson emulation, as shown in
“Epson FX Character Set Menu” on page 165.
NOTE: When OCR-A or OCR-B is selected as the print language, the Font
Attribute Typeface option under the LinePrinter Plus menu (page 124)
is changed to OCR-A or OCR-B, respectively.
To use one of these sets, choose the desired group heading (such as
European Sets) and press ENTER. Then choose the desired set within that
group (such as Roman 8) and press ENTER. Both the group and the desired
set will be starred to indicate your selection. The UTF-8 selection allows

• Disable . Does not compress print widths, even if condensed print is
chosen by the host.
Alt. Set 80-9F
• Control Code (factory default). Interprets data in the range of hex 80
through hex 9F as a control code.
