michael,
I replied directly but it didn't seem to get to you. The English language
documentation for my EP44 has several pages on international character sets
and other information but NO MENTION of any graphics, bit image dump sort of
capability. As far as I can tell the EP44 will not do it. There are quite a
few EP44s in use for portable amateur radio packet stations in this area
and I have never heard mention of the capability.
Hope this helps.
