Overview of Bitmapped Images _____________________________
A printed image is formed through a series of dots. Each square on the grid
below represents a dot on the printhead. The graphic image is created by
blackening dots in a specific pattern.
You can print varying shades of gray according to the concentration of dots on
the image.
When the dots are printed together, the end result is a graphic image.
