Control Codes

Note 1: Red, green, and blue pixels set to one at the same location result in a white dot, while red, green, and blue pixels set to zero form a black dot. For black print, one represents a black dot and zero represents a white dot.

Note 2: More than one color may be set at a time – for example, setting the color to six would set green and blue simultaneously.
