ESC * m nL nH d1...dk
[Name] Select bit-image mode
[Format] ASCII ESC * m nL nH d1...dk
Hex 1B 2A m nL nH d1...dk
Decimal 27 42 m nL nH d1...dk
[Range] m = 0, 1
0 nL 255
0 nH 3
0 d 255
[Description] Selects a bit-image mode using m for the number of dots specified
by nL and nH
Divide the number of dots to be printed by 256. The interger answer is
nH and the remainder is nL. Therefore, the number of dots in the
horizontal direction is calculated by nL + 256 x nH.
If the bit-image data input exceeds the number of dots to be printed on
a line, the excess data is ignored.
d indicates the bit-image data. Set a corresponding bit to 1 to print a dot
or to 0 to not print a dot.
The bit-image modes selectable by m are as follows.
[Notes]
If the values of m and nH are out of the specified range, the following
data is processed as normal data.
After printing a bit image, the printer returns to normal data processing
mode.
The relationship between the image data and the dots to be printed is
as follows.
