Description x first character to be redefined
y last character to be redefined
d
0
leading space of the character
d

number of columns of the defineded character
d

following space of the character

three data bytes for one column in DPQ and LQ, two data bytes for
superscript or subscript characters or 15 cpi character (DPQ + LQ)
If the download character is only being assigned one character code, specify x = y.

LQ super/subscript ≥ 0 ≤ 37 ≥ 0 ≤ 37
If defined character density (10/12/15 cpi) is selected, d
0
and d
2
will be ignored and the
defined character is centered.
If more columns than d
1
will be defined for one character, it is printed more to the right
and can overlap the next character. The absolute limit for d
1
is 15 columns in DPQ and
42 columns in LQ.
