Printronix MVP Series user manual Raster Plot Syntax, Dot Control Decimal Pattern Sequence Value

Raster Plot Syntax

The proper syntax for raster plot data is:

Control Sequence . . . ASCII Character . . . Line Terminator

All printable ASCII characters following the control sequence will be interpreted as plot data. Raster plot data must terminated with one of the following:

•Line Feed command (decimal 10)

•Vertical Tab command (decimal 11)

•Form Feed command (decimal 12)

•Carriage Return command (decimal 13) only if option 23.1 has been installed. Option 23.1 causes a Line Feed to be appended in response to the received Carriage Return automatically.

To initiate the raster plot feature, use the appropriate control sequence:

Dot	Control	Decimal
Pattern	Sequence	Value
even dot centers	EOT		4
odd dot centers	ENQ		5
even dot centers	ESC Y		89
		27
(see page 4–25)
odd dot centers	ESC Z		90
		27
(see page 4–25)

NOTE: A valid raster plot control sequence inserted anywhere in the data line ahead of the line terminator will cause the entire line to be plotted.
