This appendix contains a listing of the symbol sets, code pages, and extended character sets the printers support.

Use the charts in this appendix to convert dot sequences from the image dot pattern to codes you can use in the fields. Use the Binary to Hex Conversion Chart to convert Binary dot sequences to Hexadecimal numbers for bitmap files. Use the Dot to Run Length Encoding Chart to convert dot sequences to alphabetic characters for bitmap files.

	symbols, the trademark (™) symbol, and for formats that
	may be used on other MPCLII printers.
ANSI	Use this symbol set with proportionally spaced
	fonts.
DOS Code	Use this symbol set for extended and international
