- CUSTOM GRAPHICS EXAMPLE
- 1. Determine the matrix size for the graphic. It must be in 8 dot by 8 dot blocks. The example here has six blocks horizontally and six blocks vertically (48 x 48).
- 2. Lay out a grid and draw the image on the grid.
- 3. Transfer the image into a bit map representation and then into hexadecimal format:
- 4. Using the hexadecimal data, send the following code to print the graphic image as designed.
- 5. To send the data in binary format, the software must convert the data into binary format before transmitting it to the printer. Using the BASIC programming language for example, this is done by notation “CHR$ (&HC0)” which sends the hexidecima...

PRINT SPEED
FUNCTION To specify a unique print speed through software for a particular label. This allows flexibility in finding
the best performance and quality for the particular label format, media, and ribbon.
FORMAT <ESC>CSa
a = Designates the speed selection in ips
Place immediately after <ESC>A and immediately before <ESC>Z in a separate data stream.
Refer to the product manual for specific print speed increments.
EXAMPLE <ESC>A
<ESC>CS4
<ESC>Z
OUTPUT This command does not result in printer output.
NOTES All subsequent labels will print at this speed unless the speed is changed with this command.
The setting is stored in non-volatile memory and is not affected by cycling the power.
