■ If the data in the user-defined code pages is not copied into the work area, this function is not available. In
this case, execute Function 7 first.
■ Definition data (
d
) specifies a bit printed to 1 and not printed to 0. The data to define a character is (
x × y
)
bytes.
■ When defining the character of the Font No. 10 (configuration: 9 × 17), only the MSB can be used in the
second byte for horizontal direction. When defining the character of the Font No. 12 (configuration:
12 × 24), only the upper four bits can be used in the second byte for horizontal direction. All bits can be
used when defining characters of other fonts.
■ Definition data (
d
) defines the
y
dots pattern from the top of the characters. When
y
is smaller than the
number of dots composing the built-in character, any remaining dots below are blank.
■ Deletes the character data defined in the same code.
■ Function 8 can also define character data. It is recommended that either of the functions be used even if
both functions are supported.
• Definition area and printing results are the same in both functions, although Function 8 processes the
data in column format, and Function 9 processes the data in raster format.
■ The relation between the definition data and printing result is as follows.
Example: Characters composed of 24 × 12 dots (
x
= 2,
y
= 24)
The second bytes in the horizontal position use 4 bits of the MSB.
