* The DMP3000..3250 has two selectable "IBM Character Sets". Set 1 omits chr(03h..06h, 15h, 80h..9Fh), Set 2 includes them (though one needs an [[8bit Printer Port]] to use chr 80h..9Fh).
* The IBM characters are same as the default MS DOS character set (ie. same as built-in in CGA/EGA/VGA BIOSes). However, the DMP doesn't implement all IBM characters: chr(00h..02h, 07h..14h, 16h..1Fh) are missing. Moreover, the "border/line" symbols in chr(B3h..DAh) should usually consists of single- and double-width lines, but the DMP draws all of them as single-width lines.
