    I have a client that uses an epson pos printer (TM-T77) and it's installed as generic text.

    I'm currently passing the following commands to enable the "cash drawer open" and the paper cutter.


    • Begin Print Job - <1B>p0<3C>X<00> - To open cash drawer
    • End Print Job - <1B>Jd<1D>V<00> - To cut the paper

    Now I'm facing a problem with printing the euro sign. I've looked in the ESC/POS faq and I found the command to change the code page to hopefully allow the euro sign to print.

    Problem is that I don't know how to pass that command along with the others.

    HEX command is 1B 74 n, where n is the character code table, in my case it should be 19 (PC858 Euro).

    Any ideas on how to integrate this command with the Print Start Command?

    p.s. the commands are passed using Generic/Text properties Printer Commands Tab.
