E. Euro Support
Support for the Euro symbol can be achieved in two ways. Either by updating
the LX T-04 firmware and selecting the Euro character set or by making a
permanent character substitution in the interface. Both approaches require that
the printer firmware supports the Euro symbol and are covered by this
appendix.
The interface firmware release K12-8491 and above supports the Euro symbol
via the new ASCII character set "PC-858". This is achieved by replacing the
international currency “¤” symbol with that of the Euro symbol “€”. The
character set is selected via the terminal configuration method.
Permanent substitution of the international currency symbol with the Euro
symbol is done by sending a command sequence to the interface. This approach
does not require the interface firmware to be updated, as only the character
number is sent to the printer.
Printer Firmware Requirements
In order to be able to print the Euro symbol, the printer firmware has to meet
the minimum firmware requirement listed in the below table.
Printer model Required firmware
Lexmark 23xx version 1.7 (or great er)
Lexmark 4227 Version 3.1 (or greater)

requirement for this printer.
Refer to your printer’s User’s Guide for instructions on how to check and
