2-4 Creating and Printing Formats

Using Data Stream Graphics

You print data stream graphics one line at a time. To create a line, you
specify bits to turn off or on. Bits turned off represent white space, and bits
turned on represent part of the graphic. There is a .125 mm gap between
consecutive lines.

Command Summary

Command

Description

ESC-'V' -01 hex-00 hex-

#data#

Prints a graphic line.

#data# 72 hex bytes, indicating the dots to turn on or

off. For example, if a specified byte is FF, all
the dots are on. If it is 01, only one dot is o n,
and the other 7 are off.

If you accidentally specify less than 72 bytes,
the printer does not print the graphic. If you
specify more than 72 bytes, a fatal exception
occurs.

You do not directly specify the bits turned on or off.

You specify the bits in groups of eight by using hex

values.

Example
