Explanation of “TIFF compression mode”
With compression, the data for the “raster graphics transfer” command is based on 90 bytes of the total
number of pins (720). As shown below, with no compression, the sum of the number of offset pins and the
number of pins within the print area is the byte data. However, with compression, the number of unused pins
is also added to the data. In other words, with compression, this becomes 90 bytes when it is expanded by the
printer, regardless of the tape width.
