Lexmark TN3270E 用户手册

Code page 259 is a character set which only contains symbols and 
signs. Most of the symbols and signs are not contained in the nor-
mal character set of the printer which means that they cannot be 
used from AS/400 or iSeries.

With this command it is possible to switch to another character set 
in the printer each time code page 259 is used. This can be used to 
switch to a symbol character set or a special "symbol font" if it has 
been downloaded to the printer.

It is also possible to select another font in the printer, e.g. a special 
mathematical font.

The 

COD259 BEF

 command is executed each time there is a switch 

to code page 259 from another code page. It is not executed if code 
page 259 is selected repeatedly.

The 

COD259 AFT

 command is executed each time there is a switch 

from code page 259 to another code page. It is not executed if the 
previous code page was not code page 259.

The command corresponds to event 140 - 141.
