Chapter 4 Configuring the Serial Matrix Emulation with Control Codes

Comment An asterisk character (*) (hex 2A) may be substituted for the numeric values of x, y, or z. If the asterisk (*) is the value selected for x, the character set does not change. If * is the value selected for y or z, the previously selected international language and/or extended character set for the selected character set are used.

The character set, international language and extended character set can also be selected from the printer control panel. The control code setting overrides the control panel selection. Except for the asterisk value discussed above, values other than those shown in the tables results in the control sequence being terminated.
