Hexdump Mode

A hex code printout (or hex dump) translates all incoming data to
hexadecimal equivalents. A hex dump lists each ASCII data
character received from the host computer, together with its
corresponding two-digit hexadecimal code. Hex dumps can be
used to troubleshoot some types of printer data reception problems.
