Using the Command
UP TO THREE PAIRS OF
DECIMAL VALUES
WARNING: This feature of your QMS printer is de-
signed for advanced users. Study these instructions
carefully before using the command.
The "translation tables" act as "switchboards" that pass the
decimal codes received from your computer to the area in
the printer that makes up the page for printing. Most of the
time you want the decimal codes that the computer sends
to be relayed exactly as they are to the printing area. For
example, if your computer sends the decimal code 65
(A),
you probably want the printer to print an
A.
In this case
the translation tables pass the decimal code 65 along as a
decimal code 65.
However, you may have instances where you need to print
a character or transmit a control character (a value lower
than decimal 20) that your computer will not accommo-
date. Your laser printer provides the two translation tables
for these occurences. You should use the command
4-12
