8.2 ASCII Hex Dump

The interface can be set up to print the buffer in hexadecimal ASCII code. This
differs from the EBCDIC hex dump in that the buffer is first translated into ASCII
code before it is printed. This can be useful to diagnose problems with the
interface or the printer.
To start the ASCII hex dump through Host Download:
1. Verify that the interface is installed properly and the printer is in "READY"
mode.
2. Type the Host Download command "&%Z43,1 on the screen.
3. Send the Host Download command to the printer (either press the Print
Screen Button or print the document/file that contains the command).
4. Send the host data in question to the printer.
