	NOTE: The parameters ROW, COLUMN,
	LINES and DOTS exist to
	maintain the 9420/9440 data
	structure. These parameters are
	not used by the
	9425/9445/9465/9474 printers,
	but must be in the data stream.
	The values can be valid 9420
	values, or can be set to 0.
;dot codes	The first row of dot codes corresponds to
	the bottom row of dots in the image.
	Essentially, this means you are building
	the graphic image upside down in the data
	stream.
	Note that since this record is a character
	string, it begins with a semi-colon (;). You
	can place up to 100 characters in each
	row.
	Do not put any spaces in the dot code
	character string.
