Graphics and User-defined Characters

The dot graphics mode allows your EX to produce pictures, graphs, charts, or almost any other pictorial material you can devise, and the user-defined character feature allows you or a commercial software program to put special characters in the EXs memory so that it can print them just as if they were ordinary letters.

Because many commercial software programs use graphics, you may be able to print pictures and graphs like the ones on this page and the next by simply giving your software a few instructions.

The quickest and easiest way to print graphics on your EX is to use a commercial graphics program. With such programs you usually create an image on your monitor and then give a command to send the image to the printer.
