[Description] Defines user-defined characters.

Y specifies the number of bytes in the vertical direction.

C1 specifies the beginning character code for the definition,

and C2 specifies the final code.

X specifies the number of dots in the horizontal direction.

[Notes] • The allowable character code range is from ASCII 20H (32)

to 7EH (126) (95 characters).

• It is possible to define multiple characters for consecutive

character codes. If only one character is desired, use C1 =

C2.

• If C2 < C1, the command is not executed.

• d is the dot data for the characters. The dot pattern is in the

horizontal direction starting from the left. Any remaining dots

on the right remain blank.

• The data to define a user-defined character is ( x x y) bytes.

• To print a dot, set the corresponding bit to 1; to not have it

print, set to 0.

• This command can define different user-defined character

patterns for each font. To select the font, use ESC !, ESC ⊥⊥

⊥⊥

⊥.
