FUNCTION : 8 dot single density bit image
DEFINITION RANGE : 1 ≤ n1 ≤ 200
DETAIL DESCRIPTION : This code executes 8 dot bit image print determined by “n1”. The total number of bit image data bytes in one line is equal to n1. The printer ignores any data bytes over the specified amount allowed in one line. When the bit image print is finished the printer automatically returns to the character mode. The relationship of the image data byte and the pin position of the print head is as following, where the print pin # starts count at 1 from top of the print head (the lowest pin # 9 is not used):
bit # of m1 , m2, etc. | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 |

FUNCTION : 8 dot double density bit image
DEFINITION RANGE : 1 ≤ n1 + 256 x n2 ≤ 400
APPLICATION LIMIT :
1.For double density bit image printing, dots cannot be printed overlapping each other in the horizontal direction.
2.When printing one graphic image of a minimum of two lines with <ESC> “K” or <ESC> “L”, feed the paper a minimum of one line before printing so that the line spacing becomes identical between the lines.
DETAIL DESCRIPTION : This code executes double density bit image printing (half dot printing) determined by n1 and n2. The total number of bit image data bytes in one line is equal to n1 + n2 x 256. Refer to <ESC> “K” as to the relation between the dot position and the bit number. The printer ignores any data bytes over the specified amount allowed in one line. The printer does not print adjacent dots. When the bit image printing is finished, the printer automatically returns to the character mode.
