Section 7: Downloading Characters and Fonts
118
When NLQ II font data is downloaded, it is compressed. By filling in-between
adjacent horizontal dots, character compression by the printer is more efficient.
When you want to print the ’©’ symbol:
Send
ESC I x07
to the printer to select the download characters in NLQ II
mode.
Send data by any method that would cause the normal ’&’ character to be
printed.
The following figure shows the copyright symbol as it is designed and printed.
Solid dots indicate downloaded and printed dots. Hollow dots indicate dots
that are added to fill the design and take advantage of the compression
algorithm.
