Why am I having problems printing characters from the extended tables in the printer?
Often problems can arise while trying to print characters from the extended character tables in the printer. The cause might not be the printer but the specific communication software that is being used. Thus for example if Terra Term is used the characters print out differently from what is expected. In cases like that what is recommended is using the DOS editor to create a text file (It will not work if Notepad or WordPAd is used.) All that the test file has to contain is the character or characters which have to be printed. Save the file. Then using Terra Term send the text file to the printer and this time the characters should come out right. This is a test which can be performed to diagnose if the problem is in the printer or in the communication program being used.
