DIP-switch functions
This section describes all of the functions you can select with the DIP
switches.
International character sets
You can change 12 characters in the italic character table to suit your
printing needs. Since these characters are often used in other
languages, they are named after countries and referred to as
international character sets.
Select the international character set with DIP switches l-2,1-3, and
l-4, according to DIP-switch Table 3.
The character sets you can select by DIP switch are USA, France,
Germany, United Kingdom, Denmark I, Sweden, Italy, and Spain I.
However, you can also select the following sets with the ESC R
software co mmand: Japan (English), Norway, Denmark II, Spain II,
Latin America, Korea, and Legal.
Note: If you send the ESC t 0 command (to select italics) while DIP
switch 14 is on, the international character set is always USA.

Character tables
Your printer has six character tables built-in: five graphics character
tables and one italics character table.
I On
You can select the character tables with DIP switches l-2,1-3, and
I
To select a graphics character table, you must first turn DIP switch
l-4 on
Note: If you send the ESC t 1 command (to select graphics) while
DIP switch 14 is off, the graphics character table is always PC 437
Print direction
Printing is normally bidirectional. However, turning DIP switch l-5
on for unidirectional printing-in which the print head prints in one
direction only-allows for precise vertical printing alignment. This
makes it ideal for printing graphics such as lines or boxes.
If DIP switch l-5 is on, printing is unidirectional even if you select
bidirectional with the ESC U 0 software command.
