•Hexadecimal Dump

This feature allows experienced users to see exactly what data is coming to the printer. This can be useful in finding software problems. When you turn on the hexadecimal dump function, the printer prints all commands and other data in hexadecimal format along with a guide section to help you find specific commands.

To use the hexadecimal dump feature, follow these steps:

1)After you make sure that the printer is off, open the front cover of the printer.

2)Hold down the Feed button while you turn on the printer.

3)Close the front cover.

4)Run any software program that sends data to the printer. The printer prints “Hexadecimal Dump” and then all the codes it receives in a two – column format. The first column contains the hexadecimal codes and the second column gives the ASCII characters that correspond to the codes.

•A period(.) is printed for each code that has no ASCII equivalent.

5) When the printing finishes, turn off the printer.
