Foreign language support
Printer use with foreign languages
When supporting a single-byte character set language, your
printer must be able to support the appropriate DOS code page.
To support a double-byte character set language, your printer
must be able to support the appropriate Windows code page. The
required code pages are listed below.
Remember that not all Windows characters are available on DOS
printers, so some characters are not supported on these printers.
