[Function]

This command specifies the bit image of mode m with regard to the number of dots specified by n1 and n2.

The number of dots for printing will be divided by 256, and the quotient will become n2 with the remainder becoming n1, Accordingly, the number of dots in the horizontal direction will be n1 + 256 n2.

In a situation where the bit image data input exceeds the dot positions that are capable of being printed on one line, the portion of data in excess will be rejected for reading.

d is the bit image data. When the data is to be printed, the corresponding bit should be set to 1 , and data which is not to be printed should have the corresponding bit set to 0.

The bit image mode selected using m will be as shown below :
