[Description] Selects Raster bit-image mode. The value of m selects the mode, as follows:
m Mode Vertical Dot Density Horizontal Dot Density
0, 48 Normal 180 dpi 180 dpi
1, 49 Double-width 180 dpi 90 dpi
2, 50 Double-height 90 dpi 180 dpi
3, 51 Quadruple 90 dpi 90 dpi
[dpi: dots per 25.4 mm {1"}]
• xL, xH, select the number of data bytes (xL+xH×256) in the horizontal direction for the bit
image.
• yL, yH, select the number of data bytes (yL+yH×256) in the vertical direction for the bit image.
[Details] • In standard mode, this command is effective only when there is no data in the print buffer.
• This command has no effect in all print modes (character size, emphas ized, double-strike,
upside-down, underline, white/black reverse printing, etc.) for raster bit image.
• If the printing area width set by GS L and GS W is less than the minimum width, the printing
area is extended to the minimum width only on the line in question. The minimum width
means 1 dot in normal (m=0, 48) and double-height (m=2, 50), 2 dots in double-width (m=1,
49) and quadruple (m=3, 51) modes.
• Data outside the printing area is read in and discarded on a dot-by-dot basis.
• The position at which subsequent characters are to be printed for raster bit image is specified
by HT (Horizontal Tab), ESC $ (Set absolute print position), ESC \ ( Set relative print
position), and GS L (Set left margin ). If the position at which subsequent characters are to
be printed is not a multiple of 8, print speed may decline.
• The ESC a (Select justification) setting is also effective on raster bit images.
• When this command is received during macro definition, the printer ends macro definition,
and begins performing this command. The definition of this comm and should be cleared.
