[Outline]

This command defines the download alphenumerals or Katakana.

s denotes the number of

bytes in the vertical direction, n the start character code, and m the end character code,

respectively.

When defining only one character, set n = m.

The 224 ASCII code characters, 32 to 255, are definable.

a specifies the number of dots in

the horizontal direction to be defined. p is the data you want to define and shows the a -dots

worth of pattern in the horizontal direction from the left edge.

The remaining pattern on the

right side will be a space.

Once the download characters are defined, they remain valid

until they are redefined or the download deletion command (ESC DC2 n1 n2) is executed.

[Default]

Same as the internal character set.

[Caution]

The horizontally adjacent dots cannot be printed.

The 2nd-byte data in the vertical

direction is valid only for the most significant bit.
