Followed by parameters
Pc ; Pu ; Px ; Py ; Pz
Pc : Color number (0 - 255)
Pu : Universal coordinate system
1 = HLS
2 = RGB
Px , Py , Pz : color coordinates
Parameter Characters 0 - 9 Numeric parameters - used on the
(3/0 - 3/9) above control codes
Parameter Separator ; (3/11) Separates parameters - used on the
above control codes
Sixel Data (3/15 - 7/14) Sixel printable characters.
The printer substracts the offset (3F
hexadecimal) from the received code,
assigning each of the remaining low-
order six bits to a grid position :
LSB = top pixel
MSB = bottom pixel
Examples :
? (3/15) : blank character
@ (4/0) : print only top pixel
A (4/1) : print second-from-top pixel
~ (7/14) : print one full column
