HP-UX 11i Version 1.6 Release Notes

Internationalization
Greek Euro Support
Chapter 9

Printing Euro with Greek characters:
The standard lp command is used to print Euro and Greek characters on LaserJet
printers. The LaserJet printers should have the resident Greek character/font set with
the Euro symbol included. Current LaserJet printer models with this support include
the LaserJet 1220 and the LaserJet 2200.
Use the lp command with the -ocs12N option to select the Greek character/font set. For
example:
lp -d
[printer_name] -ocs12N -o [other_options] [print_filename]
Impact
Base Greek Euro offering (installed on all systems): Approximately 14.2MB additional
disk space is required.
No additional memory requirements are needed for running in either the el_Gr.iso88597
or el_GR.utf8 locales.
Compatibility
Iconv conversion between ISO-88597 and Greek EBCDIC (CP 875) yields different
results than in previous releases. In HP-UX 11i v1.6 , these tables have been corrected to
provide the correct conversion mappings.
It is recommended that all Greek-encoded legacy persistent data stored on previous
versions of HP-UX be converted to ISO-88597 from Greek EBCDIC prior to being moved
to an HP-UX 11i v1.6 system.
