Graphics Print Modes Normal Density Bit Image Graphics Use this command to print normal density bit images at 60 dots per inch (dpi) horizontally and 72 dpi vertically. Format ESC K Ln Hn data Decimal 27 75 Ln Hn data Hex 1B 4B Ln Hn data Usage Notes • Ln and Hn identify the number of bytes in data. To print less than 256 bytes: - Hn is 0. - Ln is the number of bytes you want to print. To print more than 256 bytes: - Divide the number of bytes you want to print by 256. - The result is Hn. - The remainder is Ln. • data is the bit-mapped graphics information. Each vertical dot column can have 8 rows of dots. To print bit image graphics, the printer uses either the first 8 (248x) or 20 (249x) wires of the printhead to map the eight bits of data. The following table shows how the print wires are mapped for the 249x printer: Bit Number 7 6 5 4 3 Binary Value 128 64 32 16 8 Print Wires 1, 2 If dots 7 and 6 print, wire 3 is also used 4, 5 6, 7 If dots 5 and 4 print, wire 8 is also used. 9, 10 11, 12 If dots 3 and 2 print, wire 13 is also used. 49 Section 3: IBM Emulation Mode Printer Commands
