Converting the User-Defined Key to a printable character

Thereafter, until the end of the job (or until you specify
otherwise), the printer recognises the selected character as your
escape character.
Example
To select the asterisk (*) as your escape character,
enter:
*
=UDK=

For most jobs, if the User-Defined Key and other printer
commands show up on the printed output, then the User-
Defined Key has not been assigned properly. You can, however,
assign it "improperly" if you want your output to show the
commands. This is done by changing the assignment to a
character other than the one used throughout the rest of the
document.
Example
You have created a document using the asterisk (*) as the User-
Defined Key, but want to change it to an at sign (@) before
sending it to the printer. To change =UDK=* at the beginning
of the document, enter:
=UDK=@
While a character is serving as the User-Defined Key, it cannot be
printed. If you want to use the User-Defined Key as a printable
character at some point in a document, you can do so by
selecting a new User-Defined Key.
As far as the printer is concerned, any time it receives the
sequence =UDK=, the character immediately following the
second equal sign is the new User-Defined Key.
Enter:
L
*+B,
*d
