{m= 0, 1, 32, 33 bit image mode (See the table below.)}
{0 =< n1 =< FF(Hex)}
{0 =< n2 =< 03(Hex)}
{0 =< d =< FF(Hex)}
{k = n1 + FF(Hex) n2 (m = 0, 1)
{k = (n1+ FF(Hex) n2) 3} (m = 32, 33)
According to the number of dots specified in n1, n2, specify the bit image of mode n.
• The No. of dots printed is divided by 256, whose quotient is taken as n2 and residual as n1.
• The total no. of dots printed in the bit image is equal to n1 + (256 x n2).
• When bit image data have been input in excess of dot position of one line (448 dots) ,
the excess data are discarded.
• d is bit image data, the bits subject to printing are taken as "1" and those not as "0".
• The bit image modes specified by m are shown as follows:
Vertical Direction Horizontal Direction
m(Hex) Mode
No. of Dots Dot Density Dot Density Max. No. of Dots
0 8-dot single density 8 67 DPI 101 DPI 192
1 8-dot double density 8 67 DPI 203 DPI 384
32 24-dot single density 24 203 DPI 101 DPI 192
33 24-dot double density 24 203 DPI 203 DPI 384
• When the values set in m (bit image mode) are out of the above range, the data
following after n1 is processed as normal printing data.
• After completion of bit image printing, printer returns to normal data processing mode.
