Printing a Hex Dump

If you are an experienced user or a programmer, you can print
a hexadecimal dump to isolate communication problems
between the printer and your software program. In hex dump
mode, the printer prints all data received from the computer as
hexadecimal values.
You can print a hex dump using either single sheets or
continuous paper. See Chapter 2 for instructions on loading
continuous paper, or Chapter 3 for instructions on loading
single sheets.
Note:
Use paper that is at least 210 mm (8.3 inches) wide, such as A4- or
letter-size paper.
