IBMThe All Characters Set, shown in Appendix B, contains only printable char;the exception of decimal codes 0 and 255. Besides giving you a broad rangecharacters and other special symbols, the All Characters Set is a handy debug,programmers, since you can print out and examine files that contain controlescape sequences.If you just want to print a single character from this set, use the ESC л commancharacter printed will be taken from the All Characters Set.Printing continuously from the All Characters Set is a little more complicated, frhave to specify how many characters you intend to print. If you are printing fewcharacters, substitute the number of characters for the variable n1, and replacTo print 256 or more characters, divide the number of characters you want to pReplace n2 with the whole number result, and assign the remainder to n1.When you send this command, the next n1 +(n2 x 256) characters will comeCharacters Set.ExamplesTo print the next 80 characters from the All Characters Set, use this BASIC sLPRINT CHR$(27);"\";CHR$(80);CHR$(0)To print the next 600 characters from the All Characters Set, use this BASICLPRINT CHR$(27);"\";CHR$(88);CHR$(2)(600 divided by 256 is 2, with a remainder of 88.)Code PageNormally the Code Page USA is the base for printable characters for the 1В1Ч/Sets I and 11 and the All Character Set. In sets I and 11 some areas are used for соin the All Character Set all 255 positions are printable.These printable characters are reassigned using the Code Page option, the ccin the IBM sets I and II do not change.To select code pages in IBM emulation, take the IBM ID number and divide it bythis number to n1 and the remainder to n2. The Multilingual, Portugal, Norwaycode pages are resident in the printer. To select all other code pages the relevcontaining the code page must be installed in the 1С card slot.ExampleTo specify code page 850 use this BASIC statement:LPRINT CHR$(27) ;"[T';CH R$(5) ;CHR$(0) ;CH R$(0) ;CHR$(0) ;CH R$(3) ;CH R$(824-18
