Define download character.

In this section we will define “download characters”.

This printer is able to print the characters expressed by the character codes in Section 8. In addition, the user can create special characters, which are called download characters.

A maximum of ten download characters can be defined, and the defined character pattern is stored in the printer’s RAM. This means that if the power to the printer is turned off, stored download characters are lost.

The range of positions in which download characters can be written is expressed by n1, n2. It is specified by the range

(21)H n1 n2 (7F)H. When the download character consists of one character, the expression becomes n1 = n2. m0 expresses the relation between the character pattern and the print head. (See following explanation.) m1 ... m5 ex- presses the character pattern.
