- The reason is that you are operation with the wrong character set.
- If you configure your machine (the display) and your printer as an
- American machine, the lower case "oe" (ASCII 155) is displayed as
- the cent with some handles on) and the upper case version of the
- same letter (ASCII 157 I think) is replaced with a Yen sign
- (Consider : our uniqe cultural featues replaced by pure monetary
- signs for units worth little. Hmmm ...)
-
- Look at the country codes in your setup.
