This is a FEATURE of the ImageWriter II that you have unwittingly found.
If you hold down the delect button when you turn on printer on, then
it will print out in hex.  This is used for debugging the pringer, presumably.
Now the select button is so close to the on/off button, that you may sometimes
accidentally touch the select when you turn on.  The cure: turn off, then
carefully turn on without touching select.
