Mode and Horizontal Density (249x Only)

For 249x printers only.

Use this command to select the mode and horizontal density for dot matrix graphics.

Format	ESC	[	g	Ln	Hn	mode	data
Decimal	27	91	103	Ln	Hn	mode	data
Hex	1B	5B	67	Ln	Hn	mode	data

Usage Notes

•Ln and Hn identify the number of bytes in mode and data. To print less than 256 bytes:

—Hn is 0.

—Ln is the number of bytes you want to print, plus 1 for the mode byte. To print more than 256 bytes:

—Divide the number of bytes you want to print (plus 1 mode byte) by 256.

—The result is Hn.

—The remainder is Ln.

•mode is the vertical wire count and the horizontal density in dots per inch. Select mode from the following table.

	Mode
Dec		Hex	Horizontal Density	Wires
0		00	60	8
1		01	120	8
2		02	120	8
3		03	240	8
