General Sixel Graphics Operation

Sixel Graphics printing consists of setting the context and attributes for the pixels and then printing the received pixels in adjacent grid positions. The following are essential elements of the Sixel Graphics print process.

Selection of Sixel Graphics using the Sixel Printer Control String.

Setting of the graphics active position and left margin.

Advancing the graphics active position to the next horizontal grid position.

The String Terminator (ST) control character causes the printer to exit Sixel Graphics mode and return to text mode.

A Graphics Carriage Return (DECGCR) command or a Graphics New Line (DECGNL) command moves the graphics active position to the graphics left margin. The Graphics New Line command also moves the graphics active position down to the next graphics line (six vertical grid positions below the current active position.)

Horizontal and vertical directions follow the text orientation. The printer images sixels from left to right, top to bottom.
