CHARACTER SETS
The following tables show the standard and IBM character sets.
The decimal character code of each character is shown in an inset to the
lower right of the character.
The hexadecimal code can be found by reading the entries at the top and left
edges of the table. For example, the character “A” is in column 4 and row
1, so its hexadecimal character code is 41. This is equivalent (4 x 16 + 1 =
65) to decimal 65, the number in the inset.
Control codes recognized by this printer are indicated by abbreviations
inside pointed brackets < >.
