    CHAPTER 4: COMMAND SEQUENCE 4.1 Raster Graphics Modes The following three modes are available for raster graphics commands: 1) Non-compressed mode - the print data is transferred without being compressed. Effective for printing data with a low compression ratio, such as photographs. 2) Run-length encoded mode - the print data is transmitted after run-length encoding compression.

    4.3 Limitations of Command Settings  “Exit Packet Mode”, in many circumstances, command MUST be called before any communication or printing can occur on any I/F. This command is described in the “Individual Command Specifications”.  The “Set absolute vertical print position ESC (V” and “Set relative vertical print position ESC (v” commands will set the starting print position of the subsequent data to be printed, including whatever white space may exist within that data.

  • Page 21: Raster Graphics Data Format

    4.4 Raster Graphics Data Format This printer’s raster graphics commands have a very different data format from the general specification commands. The driver must generate appropriate data taking into account the color nozzle positions in the printer are uniquely vertically aligned. The parameters for the raster graphics commands used by this printer are as follows.

  • Page 23 For this printer, the data must be configured bearing in mind the vertical positions of the nozzles. EPSON printers are generally having print heads with nozzles for each color structured in the same vertical position, but this printer’s head takes the Color nozzle as a reference point.
