[Outline]
According to the number of dots specified in n1, n2, specify the bit image of mode n.
• The No. of dots printed is divided by 256, whose quotient is taken as n2 nd
residualas n1.
• The total no. of dots printed in the bit image is equal to n1 + (256 x n2).
• When bit image data have been input in excess of dot position of one line(448 dots) ,
the excess data are discarded.
• d is bit image data, the bits subject to printing are taken as "1" and those not as "0".
• The bit image modes specified by m are shown as follows:

[Caution]
• When the values set in m (bit image mode) are out of the above range, the data
following after n1 is processed as normal printing data.
• After completion of bit image printing, printer returns to normal data processing
mode.
