7193 Owner’s Guide Commands

Graphics Commands

These commands are used to enter and print graphics data and are described in order of their Hex codes:

Set Absolute Starting Position

Sets the print starting position for graphics at the specified number of dots from the beginning of the line as expressed in the following formula: n = ((n1 + (256 x n2)) x 2). The resulting dot column must be less than 448. The print starting position is reset to column one after each line.

This command emulates the Epson LQ-950™ dot matrix printer. This allows the 7193 to accept graphics that are normally output from word processing programs to a half-dot matrix printer.

Hex	Decimal	ASCII
1B 24 n1 n2	27 36 n1 n2	ESC $ n1 n2

n = Number of half dots to be moved from the beginning of the line

Note: The 7193 converts two half-dots to one full dot

n1 = Remainder after dividing n by 256

n2 = Integer after dividing n by 256

Set Bit Image Mode

Sets the print resolution and enters one line of graphics data into the print buffer. Any print command is required to print the data, after which the printer returns to normal processing mode. See the illustrations for graphic representations of the bit image.

Hex	Decimal	ASCII
1B 2A m n1 n2 d1 ... dn	27 42 m n1 n2 d1 ... dn	ESC * m n1 n2 d1 ... dn
