Individual graphics options commands
As previously mentioned, the LQ responds to commands that are
used by Epson FX and RX series printers. There are four individual
graphics options commands that are very much the same as the ESC
* command, but each one works for only one graphics option. All
these commands are
8-pin
graphics options. Note that these
commands contain one less variable than the ESC * command
because they don’t need to select a graphics option. They are shown
below:
Command
Function
ESC * Format
ESC K
ESC L
Single-density
Double-density
ESC *0
ESC *1
ESC Y
ESC Z
Double-density,
high-speed
Quadruple-density
ESC *2
ESC *3
Because of a difference in line spacing increments, the shape of
graphics figures produced on the LQ with an 8-pin option is different
from the output from the same program on a 9-pin printer.
