P-Series SFCC OSET;n
Serial N/A N/A N/A
Purpose Selects the Extended Character Set and the print mode and pitch at which the
extended character will print. Valid only in the ECMA 94 Latin 1 Extended
Character Set; otherwise, this command is ignored.
Comment n ranges from 0 to 12 to select the print mode/pitch combinations available
from Table 6-5. All other values will result in an error message. In OSET
mode, values outside the range in Table 6-5 will produce an error message
(Command Line Error Messages are listed on page 6-3).
OSET is valid only when the ECMA 94 Latin 1 character set has been selected
from the control panel. OSET will be ignored if the IBM PC, Multinational,
or DEC Multinational Character Sets are active.
Extended characters will print at the print mode and pitch selected by the
OSET command, even if that mode and pitch differs from the currently seĆ
lected print mode and pitch. If the print mode differs between the extended
and primary characters, the first character in the data stream selects the print
mode at which that line will print. Different pitches can be printed on the
same line.
