Start
Raster Graphics
Command
The Start Raster Graphics command identifies the
beginning of the raster data and also specifies the left
graphics margin.
? * r # A
# = 0 - Start graphics at default left graphics
margin (X-position 0).
1 - Start graphics at current cursor position
(current X-position).
2 - Raster scaling on—start at left boundary.
3 - Raster scaling on—start at CAP.
Default = 0
Range = 0 - 3 (out-of-range values default to 0)
A value of 0 specifies that the left graphics margin is at the
default left margin of the page (X-position 0). A value of 1
specifies that the left graphics margin is at the current
X-position. Values of 2 or 3 are equivalent to 0 and 1, but
also enable resolution-independent scaling. In presentation
mode 3, the location of the left graphics margin varies
depending on the orientation.
Once a Start Raster Graphics command is received by the
printer, raster graphics resolution, raster graphics
presentation mode, raster height, raster width, and left
raster graphics margin are fixed until an end raster
graphics command is received.
Once in Raster Graphics Mode, PCL commands and text
imply an End Raster Graphics (?*rC) except for the
following commands:
Transfer Raster Data
Set Raster Compression Method
Raster Y Offset
