Remarks
Please refer to Chapter 4 for complete character set tables.
By default, after processing of possible MAP statements, the Intermec
Fingerprint fi rmware will print and, when applicable, display all characters
according to the Roman 8 character set. However, the Intermec Fingerprint
fi rmware contains a number of other character sets, which allows you
to print and display such characters that are characteristic for a number
of countries or language areas, or to adapt the printer for the operating
system of the host.
That implies that a certain ASCII code received by the printer may
result in a different character is printed or displayed depending on which
character set has been selected.
If none of the character sets available contains the desired character(s), use a
MAP statement to reMAP the character set that comes closest to your needs.
Note that MAP statements are processed before NASC statements.
