4.5.2 GRAPHIC IMAGE FIELDS
A graphic field is broken down into ten different parameters. The first position must be set
to 1. The next two are the start coordinates. The next two positions should be set to 1,7.
The GN position refers to the slot number where the desired image is stored. GO and GJ
change the print orientation and justification. The GMX and GMY positions are used to
magnify the image. A carriage return must follow every graphic field definition line.
If printed areas overlap, the common areas will become white.
The following is a list of graphic image field mnemonics and their default values:
*, XB, YB, *, *, GN, GO, GJ, GMX,GMY
1, 1, 1, 1, 7, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1
* These values remain constant and must be entered to produce a valid
image.
Note: All values must be positive integers.
XB X BEGINNING COORDINATE
The X coordinate of the field is measured in dots. The far left edge of the label as viewed
from the front of the printer is X coordinate 1. There is no X coordinate 0. The X coordinate
increases in size from left to right (see Figure 7). An XB of 203 would place the image one
inch from the left side of the label.
YB Y BEGINNING COORDINATE
The Y coordinate of the field is measured in dots. A YB of one would be specified as the
first edge of the label coming out of the front of the printer during a label print. The Y
coordinate increases in size from the bottom to the top of the label (see Figure 7). A YB of
203 would place the image one inch from the bottom of the label.
GN GRAPHIC NUMBER
This refers to the graphics location in printer memory. Valid slots are 1-8.
GO GRAPHIC ORIENTATION
This parameter defines the rotation of the graphic image on the label. The point of rotation
is determined from the graphic justification.
0 0 degrees (normal rotation).
1 180 degrees (upside-down rotation).
2 270 degrees (right rotation).
3 90 degrees (left rotation).
