Switching by Commands

Commands for switching between print languages are provided. Upon receipt of a command, this printer selects the relevant print language.

Automatic Switching

This printer analyzes the data received by the host interface to identify the print language to be used. It then switches to the identified print language automatically.

Interface-dependent

Set a print language for each host interface using the control panel. Switch to the print language corresponding to the host interface that received data.

Mode Menu Screen
