Choosing a Character Table
DIP switch 1-7 selects the italic character table or the Epson Extended Graphics character table. The Epson Extended Graphics table contains international accented characters, Greek characters, mathematical symbols, and character graphics for printing lines, corners, and shaded areas.
If you have an IBM® or compatible computer, select Epson Extended Graphics by setting DIP switch 1-7 on. You can then print both text and the character graphics that are displayed on your screen. Also you can still print italics using the ESC 4 command. Samples of italics and Epson Extended Graphics are shown below.
