(1) Dual-density bit image printing
Fig. 65 Example of Graphic Pattern Formation
NOTE: The most significant bit (MSB) of the bit image data corresponds to the dot wire
at the uppermost position.
For example, to print a graphic data as shown in Fig. 65, a program such as
shown below must be executed. However, this program has been developed
using standard BASIC language. If extended BASIC is to be used, the program
must be changed according to the features of the language.
In addition, if data is to be transferred through an interpreter of BASIC, etc.,
the data transfer rate is extremely slow. In such a case, it is recommended to
effect the data transfer through machine language, etc.
