Control of Asian Character Sets
Example:
Switch-over from 1-byte characters to 2-byte characters and vice versa:
ESC [1$q Switch to 2-byte mode, character set GB2312-80
/h B1 A2 31 32 33
Character 1 1-byte
character from
the EPSON
character set
Attributes
The attributes 'bold', 'elongated print', 'condensed print' and 'underscore' can be
applied to the Chinese characters. The subscript and superscript attributes are
not possible and produce undefined print results.
The text layout functions 'block print', 'centering' and 'right-justified' cannot be
used in conjunction with 2-byte characters.
Character pitch (HMI)
Epson ANSI emulation
The character pitch currently set (10, 12 or 15 CPI) will be used when character
codes are transferred from the 1-byte character range. The character pitch will
be doubled accordingly for Chinese characters (6, 6 or 7.5 CPI). When the
attributes 'elongated print' or 'condensed print' are used, the character pitch is
multiplied with the factor of 0.5 or 2.
The character set enabled by the operating panel selection will be active after
power-on. This presetting can be superseded by the control command shown in
the following table.

set.
