[Function]
<Thermal>
Prints bit images using 1 dots wide and 3 dots high per 1 dot of input data.
The following shows the details of data processing with this command.
• When (n1 + n2 x 256) exceeds the printable region, only data in the print region is printed.
• When (n1 + n2 x 256) exceeds the currently set printable region, only the data in the printing re-
gion is printed.
At this time, all data for the print region is discarded.
• If the current position already exceeds the print region, this command discards all data.
<Slip>, <Validation>
This command executes the bit image of a density doubled (half dot printing) for just the data count
determined by n1 and n2.
The amount of data that can be printed in one line is only the total half-dot count. Data that exceeds
the total half-dot count or the right margin is ignored.
See each printer's product specifications manual for details regarding the total half-dot count.
The relationship of the print head needle wires and the data is the same as ESC K (standard density
bit image).
When printing double-density bit images, dots adjacent in the horizontal direction do not print.
After printing the bit image, the printer automatically returns to the character mode.
When page mode is selected, all data is received and discarded.
