- 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...

“i” Programming Reference
4-58 PN: 9001158B
FORM OVERLAY, RECALL
FUNCTION
To recall the label image from stored in the Expanded Memory.
FORMAT
<ESC>&R,aa
aa = Storage number (01 to 99)
Place immediately following the <ESC>CC Memory Area Select command.
EXAMPLE
<ESC>A
<ESC>&R,01
<ESC>Q1<ESC>Z
OUTPUT
There is not a printer output as a result of this command.
NOTES
The Expanded Memory option is required fro this command.
Several images stored under different storage numbers can be printed with this command. The storage
number must be speciifed.
A read/write error will occur if an unused storage number is specified.
The label image can be moved by using the <ESC>V and <ESC>H commands when it is stored along
with a window size. If it exceeds the printable area by being moved, the label image will be trancated.
