[Function] | Define user characters |
[Code] | <1B>H<26>H<m><n1><n2>[<d>]k |
[Range] | {m = 0, 1, 2, 3(Hex)} |
| {20 =< n1 =< FF(Hex)} |
| {n1 =< n2 =< FF(Hex)} |

[Outline] | Defines a group of user characters. |
| m=0: Copy internal character set A to user character set A |
| (Parameters n1, n2 and d are omitted) |
| m=1: Copy internal character set B to user character set B |
| (Parameters n1, n2 and d are omitted) |
| m=2: For Font A (12 ⋅ 24), n1 denotes Start character code and n2 End character |
| code. Every character is 48 bytes, two bytes for each line. Only the first nibble |
| of the second byte is used. |
| m=3: Define character group with ASCII codes between >= n1 and =< n2 for character |
| set B (9 ⋅ 16). Every character is 16 bytes. |
[Caution] | The data for character set A is composed from left to right and from top to bottom |
| with two bytes for each horizontal line. The first byte contains the first 8 bits with |
| the left most bit is MSB. From the second byte only the first nibble (the most significant |
| 4 bits) is valid. |
| The data for character set B is composed from left to right and from top to bottom |
| with only one byte for each horizontal line. The nineth bith is alawys 0. |
| Downloaded characters are valid even after switching off the printer or after issuing |
| Initialize command. |
