Example: The following escape sequence will print four bytes of graphics data at 72 x 72 dpi. The resulting figure will resemble a square, since the horizontal and vertical density are the same. If some other density is chosen, the figure will resemble a rectangle.

NOTE: Horizontal movement of the printer's print head is measured in intervals of 1/720 of an inch. The supported graphics densities above may not be an integral multiple of this resolution. For example, at 150 dpi, dots may be printed every 4.8/720 of an inch. The printer is not really capable of printing dots every 4.8/720 of an inch. It will print the dots as accurately as possible, with some at 4/720 of an inch and some at 5/720 of an inch. The overall average will be 4.8/720 of an inch.

Example: The following escape sequence will print five bytes of graphics data at 150 dpi. The resulting figure will resemble a backslash character, “\”.
