If you are interested in an English-language document that covers the
Japanese Industrial Standard Code (JIS-C-6226), the Xerox Character Code
Standard has mapped Kanji in accordance with JIS-C-6226 and  documents
that mapping in the Xerox Character Code Standard (XSIS 058404 ).  This
document can be purchased for $25 from the Xerox Systems Institute, 475
Oakmead Parkway, Sunnyvale, CA  94086, (408) 737-4652.  

Xerox uses this character code standard in conjunction with its
Interpress printers.  Kanji has been implemented for a number of years
on the Xerox 8044 (12-page-a-minute) Interpress laser printer which
supports Japanese, Chinese, Russian, and all major Roman alphabet
character sets.
