4.3. Relationship between data and dot wires
Fig. 68 shows the relationship between the Bit Image data and the dot wires in the
print head. You can control arbitrary 8 dot wires in the print head.
If a bit is "1," the print head fires. If a bit is "0," the print head does not fire. For
example, assume that data are given as follows;
where a box with

you can see the first 4 bits are defined from column and the second 4 bits
are defined from row. Namely,
