66 Chapter 5: Programming commands

Graphics

These commands are used to enter and print graphics data and are described in order of their hexadecimal codes.

Download BMP logo

ASCII: ESC (+*.BMP file)

Hexadecimal: 1B (+*.BMP file)

Decimal: 27 66 77 (+*.BMP file)

Value: Maximum width = 576 (640 for 8.5 mm paper)

Maximum height = 512

Enters a downloaded BMP logo into RAM or flash.

The downloaded BMP logo can be printed by using the print downloaded bit image (1D 2F m) command.

To downloaded BMP file to save it as a logo, send the hexadecimal code 1B followed by the whole BMP file.

The printer decodes the BMP file header and will save the image data after checking important parameters, such as width, height, and the number of colors (only monochrome images are accepted).

BMPs and bit images are definable for the receipt station. However, there is no longer an automatic erasure whenever the user downloads a character set (as happened previously) as well as in the case where the current logo was never set > 0, (the automatic erasure if user flash memory had filled up with inactive logo 0 definitions upon next power cycle). Warnings about the effect of running out of defined logo space during a download apply (i.e. the command is ignored). The application is required to manage user data space, downloaded font space, and logo space.

After downloading a logo to the printer, wait 100 ms to allow the printer time to write the logo to flash.

The downloaded BMP file can be printed by using the print downloaded bit image (1D 2F m) command.

Exceptions

This command is valid only for the receipt station. This command is valid only for monochrome logos.
