PCL Menu of the printer -> Symbol Set.

Thats indeed the location to see which symbol set is active.

I don't have the option to change it.

If you press left or right arrow, can you change it?
On my printer I can change it without a problem.

I think you are talking about the M5200 printer, there it is indeed possible to change it.

But I need that same feature for the S2500.

You are right, this is not changable via OP (which is very simple one).

What you can do is to use PJL command SYMSET:

(ESC)%-12345X@PJL DEFAULT SYMSET=PC858
(ESC)%-12345X

Where (ESC) is a Escape sequence.
I already posted on this forum.
Here are instructions on how to make it in DOS session:

Open a DOS session.
Type EDIT to open an edit window.
Press the CTRL+P keys to get into control key insertion mode. Note: There will be no on-screen indication that this has occurred.
Press the ESC key to insert the escape command. It will look like an arrow. Note: In a binary editor, the ESC code is 1B.
You can now write other ESC command parameters - in our case %-12345X@PJL DEFAULT SYMSET=PC858
