Hex Trace Mode
The hex trace mode helps the user test and troubleshoot programs. Use the hex trace procedure to get a hexadecimal printout of the data stream sent to the printer. All data, including both control and character data, print in hexadecimal instead of ASCII.
To activate hex trace mode:
1.Press and hold Tractor and then turn the printer on.
2.After a few seconds, release Tractor and the lights go out.
3.Start your application program. Be sure the printout is similar to the hex trace sample shown. Two hexadecimal digits, followed by a space, are printed for each byte of data sent to the printer.
4.The printer continues to print in hexadecimal until you turn the printer off.
