Perform these steps by sending specific commands from your computer to your printer. For step 1, always send the universal exit command:

<ESC><SOH>

Next you must immediately send an EJL command. For example, you can enter the LQ emulation by sending the following commands.

“@EJL ENTER LANGUAGE = LQ”<LF>The printer emulation indicated on the display changes to the new one.

Overview of the EJL commands

EJL commands must be sent immediately after the printer receives the universal exit command; otherwise the printer returns to its default printer emulation.

Every EJL command starts with the string: @EJL, which must be in uppercase letters, although other commands can be in both uppercase and lowercase.

YoumustsendtheLFcodeattheendofanEJLcommand;only an LF code terminates the EJL command. If the EJL command is notfollowedbyanLFcode,theprinterdoesnotrecognizeitas an EJL command; it is then printed as a character string in the current printer emulation.

If the printer emulation you attempt to switch to is not available, the printer switches to the default printer emulation.

If you are in Epson GL mode, you cannot exit with the universal exit command. You must switch emulations with SelecType.
