Default character set
When DIP switch 1-1 is on, the user-defined character set is the default.
User-defined characters are maintained in printer memory even when the
power is turned off, so the user-defined character set can be selected
simply by setting this switch to on. However, when this switch is on,
new user-defined characters cannot be defined. See Chapter 4 for more
information on user-defined characters. This switch is effective only in
the Epson ESC/P mode.
Zero character
When DIP switch 1-2 is on, the printer prints slashed zeroes (0). When
the DIP switch is off, the printer prints open zeroes (0). This is useful for
clearly distinguishing between uppercase O and zero when printing such
items as program lists.
Character table
When DIP switch 1-3 is on, the Epson Extended Graphics character table
is selected. When it is off, the italics character table is selected. The Epson
Extended Graphics character table contains international accented
characters, Greek characters, and character graphics for printing lines,
comers, and shaded areas. If you have an IBM
compatible, select the Epson Extended Graphics table when you wish to
print the character graphics as they are displayed on the screen. Since the
character table setting affects only half of the character table, you can
