4.To store the custom designed character in memory using a hexadec- imal data stream, the command would be:

<ESC>A

<ESC>T1H3F0100038007C00FE01FF03FF87FFCFFFE07C007C007C 007C007C007C007C007C0<ESC>Z

Note: This should be a continuous data string without any CR or LF characters.

5.To recall the custom character from memory, send the following code to the printer. Note that you can print other data as well. Also note how the character size was expanded using the <ESC>L command.

<ESC>A

<ESC>L0505<ESC>H0150<ESC>V100<ESC>K1H903F

<ESC>L0505<ESC>H0600<ESC>V100<ESC>K1H903F
