Example:
"M100,
0,
100,
100"
The pen moves 20 mm
(0.8 in.) in the direction of the X axis and 20 mm
(0.8 in.} in the
direction of the Y axis.
The values of X and Y are between —999 and +999.
The minimum amount of pen movement
is 0.2 mm
(0.008 in.).
R Instructions for relative movement (pen up)
R
X1,
Y1,
X2,
Y2,
..... Xn,
Yn
(n= )
Except for the above, this instruction is used in the same way as an M Instruction.
D Instruction.
.. .. absolute movement (pen down)
D
X1,
Y1,
X2,
Y2,
..... Xn,
Yn
(n=o0)
Draws
a line from the current position of the paper to the position of the coordinates
(X1,
Y1)
Example:
D100,
0,
100,
100,
0,
100,
O, O
(draws a square 20 x 20 mm or 0.8 x 0.8 inches)
Except for the above, this instruction is used in the same way as an M Instruction.
J Instruction..... relative movement (pen down)
J
X1,
Y1,
X2,
Y2,
.....Xn,
Yn
(n=)
Draws a line from the current position of the pen to the position of the coordinates (X1, Y1).
Example:
"J100, 0, 0, 100, —100, 0, 0, —100"" {(draws a square 20 x 20 mm or 0.8 x 0.8 inches)
Except for the above, this instruction is used in the same way as an M Instruction.
t Instruction . . ... defining the origin (Initialized)
Sets the origin (X = 0, Y = Q) at the current position of the pen. When the GRAPH mode is
specified by ESC + 'b,"" the pen returns to the left margin and this position is set as the origin.
When you create a drawing, it may be inconvenient if the origin is set at the left edge.
In this
case, move the pen to any position using an M Instruction and use an | Instruction to set that
position as the origin. Then you can draw starting with this position.

Example:
H Instruction.
.. .. return to the origin (Home)
Return to the origin with the pen lifted up.
Example:
"H"
P Instruction .. ... for drawing letters
This instruction is used in the GRAPH
mode to plot letters.
This is specified in the form
shown below.
P C1C2
...
Cn
(n=)
Put P at the head of the letters to be plotted;
C1C2...Cn
Example:
"PABCDEFG"
(plots ABCDEFG)
