[Description]

Defines the user-defined Kanji character pattern specified by the character codes (c1 and c2) of the currently selected Kanji font.
  • c1 specifies the first byte of a character code for a user-defined Kanji character.
  • c2 specifies the second byte of a character code for a user-defined Kanji character.
  • d specifies the definition data (column format).
  • k indicates the number of definition data. k is an explanation parameter; therefore, it does not need to be transmitted.

[Notes]

  • This command is effective only for the Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Korean models.
  • The printer processes k byte data of d1...dk as definition data. Data (d) specifies a bit printed to 1 and not printed to 0.
  • The number of characters to be defined differ, depending on the printer models.
  • Different user-defined characters can be defined for each Kanji character. Kanji fonts can be specified by FS ( A   <Function 48> of FS ( A.
  • Defined data is effective until it is redefined, ESC @ is executed, the printer is reset, or the power is turned off.
  • User-defined characters are not defined and space is printed at the default.
  • The relationship between the definition data and a print result is as follows.
  • Example: data of the definition of the user defined character (2 bytes in vertical × 16 dots in horizontal) is necessary. (k = 32)
