address the "n x 8"
print dots and specify the presence or
absence of the color blue.
The left-most bit of a

byte
represents the left-most of eight
sequential print dots along the scan

The number of print dots addressed by
the
CR1
control code is equal to
((CNT-5)/3). Any remainder results in
those bytes being ignored at the end of
the
DATA
information field. Note that
print dots addressed by the
CR1
control
code must in multiples of eight and
each color block starts on a byte
boundary. The control codes
$FC, SBC
and Sp$ do not affect the color selected
in this
DATA
format.
When printing a line with a multicolor
