Getting to Know Your Printer
Explanation
The printer is able to emulate the graphics densities set with the printer commands. If you
select Dark, the bit image density is high, and if you select Light, the bit image density is
low.
If you select BarCode, the printer converts bit images to bar codes by automatically filling
in any vertical gaps between dots. This produces unbroken vertical lines that can be read
by a bar code reader. This mode will reduce the size of the image being printed, and may
also cause some distortion when printing bit image graphics.
Settings (default in bold):
Dark, Light, BarCode
