— 41 — (11) Registered Letter V alid/Invalid (ESC + “%”) Command Whether a registered pattern is valid or invalid is set with ESC (1BH) + ”%” (25H) + n code being input. n = 1 (01H): Registered pattern to be made valid. (Addresses for which no registration change has been conducted are taken as inside fixed characters.
— 42 — [Method of data transmission] 1) Single character registration Select the address to be defined (character code) from among 20H to FFH and designate is as A1. When registering a single character , starting and ending addresses match each other .

— 44 — As the 40-column model is of half-dot printing system, continuous dots cannot be arranged in the printing direction (lateral direction). Therefore, even if any pattern is specified at point “*” at the right of point “ ● ” above, it cannot be registered as a pattern.
— 45 — (13) Bit Image Printing (ESC +“K”) Command With ESC (1BH) + K (4BH) + n1 + n2 + n3 code being input, conversion from T ext mode into Bit Image mode takes place. The n1/n2/n3 assigns amount of transmission of bit image data which follows these.

If double-height, double-width character is specified, character data following this code is printed enlarged by 2 times both vertically and horizontally .
— 47 — 2. iDP3110 emulation In order to reduce power consumption when printer is not in operation, two power down modes triggered by the codes DC2 (12H) and DC3 (13H) are available with this printer . When the printer receives DC2 (12H) or DC3 (13H), it enters the power down mode after all data previously received is printed out.
