Hex dump
In hex dump, the printer prints data and commands in 2-digit hexadecimal code. The interface operation is the
same as online in Normal mode. It enables the checking of character sequences the computer sends to the printer
as commands which are interpreted but not printed in regular mode. One line contains 16 two-digit hexadecimal
codes and corresponding ASCII characters.
