Code Sets D-23

Printing International Characters

The ESC ESC G and ESC R sequences in the code set cause the printer
to replace some of the standard ASCII characters with alternate charac-
ters that are used in a specific language. These sequences are described
later in this appendix.

ECS Fonts

The printer can use a special kind of font called an Extended Character
Set (ECS) font. ECS fonts contain alternate characters for codes above
127 decimal and do not contain any characters for codes below 32
decimal. The ESC ESC C escape sequence disables the alternate charac-
ters and restores the standard characters. This sequence is described
later in this appendix.

Control Codes and Escape Sequences

When you select Epson JX, Epson LQ-2550 or IBM XL24 as the active
printer emulation, you can use the control codes and escape sequences
listed in tables D-5 and D-6. The codes and sequences are organized
into the following categories:

9 Control codes

An italicized letter in an escape sequence, such as n, n1 or m, represents
a single-code variable. An italicized word, such as list or coding,
represents a multiple-code variable.
