CUSTOM GRAPHICS, STORE
FUNCTION To provide similar functionality to the <ESC>G Custom Graphic command, but allows
for the graphic image to be stored in Expanded Memory. Use the Store command to
send the graphic data to the printer's optional Expanded Memory.
FORMAT <ESC>GIabbbcccddd{data}
Immediately following the <ESC>CC Memory Area Select command.
EXAMPLE <ESC>A
<ESC>CC1
<ESC>GIH0020020010100038007C00FE01FF03FF87FFCFFFE07C007C007C007
C007C007C007C007C0
<ESC>Z
OUTPUT
There is no printer output as a result of this command. See <ESC>GR Recall Custom
Graphics command.
NOTES
Expanded Memory is required to use this command. Its maximum storage capacity is
999 graphics or up to the capacity of the memory card used.
If a data transmission error occurs, the printer will beep, the ERROR LED will
illuminate, and the image must be transmitted again.
Each graphic to be stored must be sent in its own data stream.
Example of correct data stream:
Example of incorrect data stream:
Do not use ASCII <CR> or <LF> characters (carriage return or line feed) as line
delimiters within the graphic data or the actual image will not be printed as specified.
