When the file is downloaded the printer returns ACK.
If the file contents are incorrect the printer returns NACK. File format to be described in appendix. So the full sequence for downloading files as font ID 90 would be:
1D F0 01 CB
1D F0 80 followed by map file shftjis.chr
1D F0 02 01
1B 20 n for horizontal character spacing
1B 33 n for vertical character spacing
1D F0 80 followed by character definition file shftj16.chr
1D F0 02 02
1B 20 n for horizontal character spacing
