Text Commands

45

ESC l		data		Send Dot-Line, 300 dpi
1B 6C	n1...n2	data	hex
27 108	n1...n2	data	decimal

Sends one line of dot data. This command is used to build images, one dot line at a time.

n1 n2	Determines the number of bytes: n2 is the low byte and n1 is the high
	byte. The value of n1+n2 must be 1 or more.
	For 320 bytes n1 should be 1, and n2 should be 64.
<data>	1–320 bytes of data for a 216 mm printer

Caution • Always send the No. of bytes that you specify!

If more than the specified No. of bytes are received, the rest of the bytes will be interpreted as text or commands. This can cause any kind of problems in the printer as graphics data can contain any hex value.

If you specify less data then the actual printhead width, the printer will fill the rest of the dot line with spaces.

Data compression

The Windows drivers use line based compression to decrease the time it takes to transfer graphics data to the printer.

<ESC>l<0><0><0> or <ESC>s<0><0>	disables compression
<ESC>l<0><0><1> or <ESC>s<0><1>	enables compression
