Note: The code page field is a 16-bit field that is a function of the code
page numbers <n

h

> and <n

l

>, e.g. (<n

h

> * 256) +<n

l

>. For example, 1 *

256 + 181 = 437. For the IPCL command, the page is specified in ASCII
as a 4-byte field.

Note: If the code page is not found in the internal translation, the code
page requested is translated into a code page file name and if a user
defined file is found, it will be used as the code page definition.
