Graphics mode gives the user complete control over every dot position on the paper. Graphics may be
printed with 72 dpi horizontal density and 72 dpi vertical density only in this emulation.
Each byte of graphics data represents a vertical column of six dots, with the LSB (least significant bit)
corresponding to the top wire of the print head. Turning a bit on causes a dot to be printed.
If you wanted to fire all six wires, you would send a decimal value of 63 (3F hex) (character '?'). Byte values
0 through 31 are interpreted as control codes, so you have to add the value 64 decimal to any byte value
between 0 and 31:
WEIGHT WIRE
1 1 ?
2 2 ?
4 3 ?
8 4 ?
16 5 ?
32 6 ?
DEC. VALUE 65 66 68 72 80 32
CHARACTER A B D H P space
Each graphics sequence contains any number of bytes followed by the terminating sequence ESC \
(hexadecimal 1B 5C).
Carriage returns and line feeds are recognized control characters while in graphics mode. Note that line
feeds are at 12 LPI while in graphics mode, and revert to their previous setting when graphics mode is exited.
Vertical Tabs and Horizontal Tabs are not recognized by this emulation.
