Hexadecimal Dump
Hexadecimal Dump Function
This function prints the data transmitted from the host computer in hexadecimal numbers and
in their corresponding characters.
Performing a Hexadecimal Dump
1. Turn the printer power off.
2. Set DIP switch 1-2 to on to select 40 bytes for the receive buffer capacity.
3. Turn the power on while pressing the FEED button.
4. Before finishing the initialization of the printer, release the FEED button, then press the FEED
button again. The printer first prints "Hexadecimal Dump" on the paper roll, and prints the
data received thereafter in hexadecimal numbers and their corresponding characters until
the printer is turned off.
NOTES:
"." is printed if no printable ASCII character corresponds to the data received.
During the hexadecimal dump, all commands except DLE EOT and DLE ENQ are disabled.
Insufficient print data to fill the last line can be printed by setting the printer off line. (See to On-line/off-line
switching.)
