Each character is defined by 12 bytes (only bytes 2–11 are printed.)
Each byte is one column (full- or half-dot column.)
Overlapped dots are not printed.
The data must contain [(c2 - c1 + 1) x 12] bytes. (See illustration.)
Defines and enters downloaded characters into RAM or flash. The command may be used to overwrite single
characters. User-defined characters are available until power is turned off or the initialize printer command (1B 40) is

Any invalid byte (s, c1, c2, n1) aborts the command.
User-defined character sets for both slip and receipt may be used at the same time.
