E. Euro Support

Support for the Euro symbol can be achieved in two ways. Either by updating the LX T-04 firmware and selecting the Euro character set or by making a permanent character substitution in the interface. Both approaches require that the printer firmware supports the Euro symbol and are covered by this appendix.

The interface firmware release K12-8491and above supports the Euro symbol via the new ASCII character set "PC-858". This is achieved by replacing the

international currency “¤” symbol with that of the Euro symbol “ €”. The character set is selected via the terminal configuration method.

Permanent substitution of the international currency symbol with the Euro symbol is done by sending a command sequence to the interface. This approach does not require the interface firmware to be updated, as only the character number is sent to the printer.

Printer Firmware Requirements

In order to be able to print the Euro symbol, the printer firmware has to meet the minimum firmware requirement listed in the below table.

Printer model	Required firmware

Lexmark 23xx	version 1.7 (or greater)
Lexmark 4227	Version 3.1 (or greater)
Lexmark 4227 Plus	There is no minimum firmware
	requirement for this printer.

Refer to your printer’s User’s Guide for instructions on how to check and upgrade the firmware.
