Change character set? Message #2 Posted by Steve on 26 Jan 2000, 6:54 a.m., in response to message #1 by thib
I think there's a way to change character set (I'm sure there is). If I recall correctly, the default character set does not have the certical bar, but the alternate one does.
My IR printer module uses MAPON and MAPOFF commands to do this. I recall on other HP printers the SI and SO characters (^N and ^O) were used to swap between primary and alternate character sets (but I don't think that will work on the IL printer)
Hmmmm, I do know that the MAPON and MAPOFF commands equate to escape sequences, maybe the IL printer understands those?
Have a look at this page http://www.jarno.demon.nl/ptrcodes.htm It talks about the 82240B printer, but HP are pretty good about using the same escape sequences.
I hope something works :-)
