Follow these steps to print a hex dump:
1. Make sure paper is loaded and the printer is turned off.
c
Caution:
Whenever you turn off the printer, wait at least five seconds
before turning it back on; otherwise you may damage the
printer.
2. To enter hex dump mode, hold down the
Top of Form
and
LF/FF Load
buttons and then turn on the printer.

format.
By comparing the characters printed in the right column
with the printout of the hexadecimal codes, you can check
the codes the printer is receiving. If characters are printable,
they appear in the right column as ASCII characters.
Nonprintable codes, such as control codes, are represented
by dots.

Pause
button, and
then turn off the printer.
c
Caution:
Do not turn off the printer while it is printing the hex dump.
Always press the
Pause
button to stop printing and then turn
off the printer.
