12 – 61
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.
