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 K12-8491and 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.
