Hexadecimal Dumping Mode
In the hexadecimal dumping mode, the printer prints the data transmitted from a host computer in
hexadecimal numbers and their corresponding characters. It enables you to check if data is transmitted to the
printer correctly.
Follow the steps below. Hexadecimal Dumping Mode can also be executed using ESC/POS Commands.
1
Open the roll paper cover.

While pressing the Feed button, turn on the printer. (Hold down the Feed button
until the Error LED turns on.)

Close the roll paper cover.
The printer starts printing data received from then on in hexadecimal numbers and their
corresponding ASCII characters.
•
If there is no character corresponding to print data, “ . ” is printed.
•
If you press the Feed button when there is less than one line of print data, one line is printed.
•
During hexadecimal dumping mode, applications that check the printer status may not operate
correctly. The printer only returns the status for the “Real-time transmission status” command.
