Other Graphics Considerations

 

In horizontal format, an LF causes the paper to advance one or two

 

dot rows based on the vertical dot density, regardless of whether 6-bit

 

or 8-bit graphics has been selected.

 

In vertical format, the paper is advanced as the dot rows (6 or 8,

 

depending on graphics mode) are printed.

Graphics Sequences

 

 

ESC P

DCS (Device Control String): Enters dot graphics mode at the

 

density and format previously selected by the

 

ESC [ <p1> ;<p2> ; <p3> q sequence. Following this sequence, the

 

printer prints discrete dots and leaves spaces based on the 1s and 0s

 

in the low order six bits of each byte received. forming graphic dot

 

rows from left to right. To exit from dot graphics mode, use ESC \.

 

While in graphics mode (after ESC P and before the ESC \ sequence),

 

8-bit graphics can be printed instead of 6-bit by using one of the

 

following sequences:

 

 

ESC " 1 n1 <data bytes>

60 dpi horizontal

 

ESC " 2 n1 <data bytes>

120 dpi horizontal

 

ESC " 3 n1 <data bytes>

Uses current horizontal and vertical

 

 

 

density.

 

n1

number of data bytes to follow

 

<data bytes>

n1 bytes of graphics data

 

When the number of bytes of 8-bit data specified by n1 have been

 

processed, and prior to receiving an ESC \ sequence, the data will

 

print as 6-bit graphics.

 

 

Decimal:

Hex:

1B 5B 50

 

 

BASIC:

CHR$(27);"P";

 

ESC [ p1 b

REP (Repeat Text or Dot Graphics Character): Repeats the single

 

preceding character p1 times. If p1 is 0 or unspecified, it is set to 1.

 

The maximum value for p1 is 32,767.
