13-10. Bit Image Graphics
The M8510A has a graphics capability which enables the user to specify which wires of the dot head
are to be fired in any dot position. Thus, special characters not in the printer's character set can be
printed. In addition, by setting the line feed pitch to 14/144 inch (See Section 13-3.), full page high
resolution graphics can be accomplished.
