Defines the font of download characters of alphanumeric
characters.
• “s” indicates the number of bytes in vertical direction.
• “n” indicates the start character code and m the end
character code. To define only one character, set n=m.
• Character codes definable includes 95 ASCII codes in total
between <20> H to <7E> H.
• “a” indicates the number of dots in horizontal direction for
definition.
• “p” is the data to be defined, which indicate a pattern
equal to “a” dot in horizontal direction from the left end.
The rest of the pattern on the right side is filled with space.
The rest of data to be defined is s x a.
• Download characters thus defined remain valid until
redefinition, ESC @ execution, GS * execution, or power
OFF is practiced.
Download characters and download bit images can not be
defined simultaneously.
Running this command clears the definition of the download
bit image.
