Creating Graphic Fields
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 Description
ESC- 'V'- 01 hex-0 0 hex-
#data#
Prints a graphic line.
#data#
48 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 on,
and the other 7 are off.
If you accidentally specify less than 48 bytes,
the printer does not print the graphic. If you
specify more than 48 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
This line of code prints a solid horizontal line of dots.
