EF4270 Emulation Commands

Graphics Commands

These commands are used to control the way graphics are entered or printed. They are listed in numerical order of their hexadecimal codes.

Graphics

Enters graphics printing mode which prints all available dots (uses all wires in the printhead). Any combination of dots may be printed in a graphics cell. Each graphics cell is eight dots wide by nine dots high, with nine bytes of data needed to define the cell (each byte defines the row of eight dots). The command must precede the nine bytes that define the cell. Graphics and text may be printed on the same line.

Do not use the command again to turn off this graphics mode as the printer will expect another set of bytes to define a new cell.
