• If less than 256 characters are to be defined, all character locations (address) must
be consecutive from the starting character.
• Downloading data to one code position does not affect any other code position
that has already been loaded.
• Since the DLL character reside in volatile RAM, they are not saved when power
is turned off.
• This command initiates printing action (print block).
• DLL characters can be combined with most print features, emphasized, enhanced,
double width. For exact combinations, refer to attachments Print Mode/Features
Combination Chart.
• The NLQ print feature used in conjunction with this command will cause utility
character interpolation printing.
• Changing the “Emulation Mode” setting in MENU mode will cause all stored DLL
data to be copied.
• Ascender characters can be defined in rows 1 through 8, and column 1 through
11.
• Ascender characters can be defined in rows 2 through 9, and column 1 through
11.
• When underlining a descender DLL character, the underline occupies the same
row as the bottom row of the character.
15) Custom font—create char pattern—UTL/NLQ DLL
(a) Code: part 1 part 2 part 2’
ESC = c1 c2 m n a1 a2 d1 ... d11 a1 a2 d1 ... d11 ...
(b) Compatibility: IBM III
(c) Function:
Define up to 256 character patterns for a 11 H × 8V (UTL), 23 × 8V (NLQ) matrix
and store the pattern in RAM.
(d) Range:
• c1 = decimal 0 – 255
• c2 = decimal 0 – 13
• m = decimal 20 or 21
• n = decimal 0 – 255
• a1 = decimal 0 – 255 (see a1’s bit definition below)
• a2 = decimal 0 – 255 (see a2’s bit definition below)
• d1 = decimal 0 – 255
• d11 = decimal 0 – 255
(d) Variable purpose:
• c1 = Low byte of total data count.
• c2 = High byte of total data count.
• m = print ID, selects print quality i.e. 20 = UTL or 21 = NLQ II/Alternate NLQ II
• n = starting character (address) to be redefined by the user.
