Characters like ä ü Ä Ü

are printed as { } [ ]

Most likely an incorrect System Language has been selected. Select the System Language matching your system configuration. see the

section Select System Language. Characters like é ì ô ü are printed as e i o u

Your printer has not been set up for the character set matching the ASCII Character Set selection. Make sure that you have selected the correct Printer Driver and the correct ASCII Character Set in the Basic Configuration.

If this doesn't help, your printer may not be able to print all the characters that the system produces. Print out the EBCDIC-to-ASCII translation table (see Appendix C), and compare this to the table in Appendix B. In some cases it is possible to edit the translation table, or to select another character set in your printer. Consult your distributor for further details.
