# = 1152 indicates that CCITT G3/G4 data compression is to be used.
This format is popular in optical document storage areas as this compression is effective to store black and
white type pictures. As G3/G4 format does not have picture size/resolution information, the printer requires
a header at the beginning of the picture data. The header size is 94 Bytes. Both the header and the picture
data are transferred by the ESC*b###W(###=data length) command. The normal PCL transfer graphics data
command has a limitation on the data size and ### should not exceed 32767. Unlike other modes, this
mode is special and does not have the 32767 size limitation. The data must have the following structure -
Header and Picture data. The values in this mode are little endians.
