re: "...your only probable choice is to emit enough  characters..."

Nope.  I see in the manual that you can also download character images.
Since you are likely using display functions (DF) to print the NBS symbols
for ASCII control characters, be advised that you can simulate this same
operation *without* using DF, by downloading (as ordinary printable
characters codes) the character image(s) desired.

In other news...  Looking at the HP-IB section, I see that there is
apparently no secondary command to disable DF.
