are the configurations of user-defined characters. specifies the number of
bytes in the vertical direction. specifies the number of bytes in the horizontal
direction. Character codes ranging from ASCII code 20H (32) to 7EH (126) can
be defined by
1
> and
2
>. Up to 19 user-defined characters can be defined.
Data () specifies a bit printed to one and not printed to zero. At the default,
user-defined characters are not defined, and the internal character set is printed.
Once the user-defined characters have been defined, they are available until
[ESC] @ or [ESC] ? is executed; the user-defined characters are redefined; the
power is turned off; or the printer is reset.
