Printer converting character code included in print data into character code of prescribed character encoding system to generate raster data

A printer comprising:

• a memory;
• a print engine;
• and
• a controller configured to perform:
• acquiring print data;
• a print-data process based on the print data, the print-data process including:
• a specific process when the print data includes a print-data character code, the specific process being to:
• specify a print-data character encoding system describing the print-data character code;
• and determine whether the print-data character encoding system is a prescribed character encoding system, the print-data character encoding system associating each of a plurality of characters with a respective one of a plurality of print-data character codes;
• a reading process when the specific process determines that the print-data character encoding system is not the prescribed character encoding system, the reading process being to read a print-data conversion table stored in the memory, the print-data conversion table being a conversion table for the print-data character encoding system, the print-data conversion table mapping each of a plurality of reference character codes of the print-data character encoding system to a respective one of a plurality of target character codes of the prescribed character encoding system;
• a conversion process when the reading process is performed, the conversion process being to convert the print-data character code into a converted print-data character code using the print-data conversion table, the converted print-data character code being a specified target character code among the plurality of target character codes in the print-data conversion table, the specified target character code being mapped from a reference character code matching the print-data character code among the plurality of reference character codes in the print-data conversion table;
• and
• a printing process when the conversion process is performed, the printing process being to generate raster data using the converted print-data character code and instruct the print engine to perform printing based on the raster data.
