Determine Printable Characters; Printing Errors - Lexmark T656 Technical Reference Manual

Determine printable characters

The Forms and Bar Code Card supports multiple code pages. It also supports a wide variety of fonts,
which are listed in appendix "Forms Card Fonts" on page 128. Therefore, the possible permutations
of code pages and fonts is excessive.
Because the user's computer font list is richer than that of the printer, a user could easily create a
form where not all characters will print.
This Technical Reference cannot define what is standard and non-standard, as those definitions
change for each geographic location.
The user stipulates a supported code page via the Forms Composer.
Five font families support the international character set.
• Intl-Courier
• Intl-CG Times
• Intl-Univers
• Arial MT
• Times New Roman PS MT
These font families should complement any code page selected and result in almost every character
printing.
When printing a formset that utilizes an international character set, it is recommended that a sample
be printed to ensure all of the characters will be printed.

Printing errors

Forms jobs will print until an error occurs. If "Error page Print" is ON, the error page will print
indicating the error encountered.
Once that error is cleared, the user can attempt to print again. The print job will continue unless
another error occurs.
For print jobs with multiple errors, each must be encountered and cleared individually.
The following is an example of an error page.
The appendix "Forms Print Errors" on page 144 lists error codes reported and suggestions for
corrective action.
