1.3 AUTOTEST
To run the autotest, hold down the FEED key, while switching on the printer.
The autotest causes the printing of the printer’s current setting data and the
printing of the complete ASCII character set.
1.4 HEXADECIMAL DUMP
If the PRINT key is held down during switching on, the printer enters
Hexadecimal Dump mode. This function is used for the diagnostics of
characters received in serial. In fact, these are printed in hexademical code
together with the corresponding ASCII code.
