Graphics like the previous one bit per byte (diamond) bitmap example, can be
downloaded in six bits per byte format.
To create a six bits per byte format
1. Draw the graphic on graph paper.
2. Change the graph paper drawing into a pattern of ones and zeros.
3. Starting from the top row, divide each vertical column into groups of six
digits. (If the bottom group has less than 6 digits, add zeros to this group
until it also has six.) The six digits in each group are the six bits that will be
downloaded in a byte of data. The top digit of each group is bit 0, the
bottom digit is bit 5.
4. Add a 1 in the bit 6 position, and then add a 0 in the bit 7 position so that
each group now has eight digits. (Eight digits complete the byte.)
5. Reverse the order of each group so that bit 0 is now last and bit 7 is first.
Each eight-digit group is now a binary representation of an ASCII
character.
6. Translate each eight-digit group into an ASCII character according to the
chart in the Appendix, and the method you choose to download the data.
7. Make sure the printer is in 4400 mode and not in Emulation mode.
8. Download the graphic so that each column is represented by a command
string.
Here is the same diamond shape graphic shown earlier, but this time it is in six
bits per byte format with ASCII characters.
