Syntax

'Declaration
Public MustOverride Property MapCharacterSet() As Boolean
public abstract bool MapCharacterSet {get; set;}
public: property virtual Boolean MapCharacterSet{
    Boolean get();
    Void set(Boolean);
}
public abstract boolean get_MapCharacterSet();
public abstract void set_MapCharacterSet(boolean);
public abstract function get MapCharacterSet() : Boolean;
public abstract function set MapCharacterSet(Boolean);

Remarks

If MapCharacterSet is TRUE and when outputting data, the service object maps the characters transferred by the application to the character set selected in the CharacterSet property for printing data.

If MapCharacterSet is FALSE, then no mapping is supported. In such a case the application must ensure the mapping of the character set used in the application to the character set selected in the CharacterSet property.

If CapMapCharacterSet is FALSE, then MapCharacterSet is always FALSE.

MapCharacterSet is typically initialized do FALSE. It should then be updated by the service object based on the capabilities of the device.
