Selecting an International Character Set
International character sets provide you with the characters and
symbols used in other languages. You can select one of eight
international character sets by changing the DIP switch settings.
Whenever the printer is turned on, reset, or initialized, the character set
selected by the DIP switches becomes the default character set.
To select an international character set, set DIP switches
1-1, 1-2,
and
1-3 according to the table below.
This table also shows the characters that differ in each international
character set.
