The variables, n1 n2 n3 and so on, are the number of characters that you want to
print. For example, for each character, n1 n2 n3...., that you want to print, you
substitute the decimal or hexadecimal digit for that character.
Use the code page tables for the decimal or the hexadecimal digit (see "Code
Pages" on page 187).
• Locate the character on the code page table.
• Use the decimal or hexadecimal digit for that character in the printer com-
mand format.
