[Outline]
• According to the number of dots specified in "n1", "n2", specify the bit image of
• The number of dots printed is divided by 256, whose quotient is taken as n2 and
• When bit image data have been input in excess of dot positions that can be printed
• "d" is bit image data. Bits to be printed are specified as "1" and those not as "0".
• The bit image modes specified by "m" are shown as follows:
[Caution]
• When the value of "m" is out of the above range, the data following after "n1" is
