Hex dump printing (HEX-DUMP)

HEX-DUMP prints data and commands in hexadecimal and
abbreviated control code. The character set is IBM character set 2.
HEX-DUMP is useful for checking whether the processor is sending
the correct commands to the printer and whether the printer is
executing commands correctly. It is also useful for debugging software
programs.
To print hex dumps, check that continuous forms are loaded. Then do
the following:
1. Enter setup mode.
Place the printer offline and then press FONT and MENU
simultaneously. Wait for the printer to stop printing and check that
the <<FUNCTION>> menu is printed.
