There is one variable box for entering symbol sets and one for entering point size. These variables must be filled in, or the printer will use defaults. For example, if you want a symbol set that contains line-draw characters, select the 10U (PC-8) or 12U (PC-850) symbol set. Other common symbol set codes are listed in the table beginning on the next page. Font list 1 2 1 Symbol set 2 Point size ENWW Entering escape characters 171
