[Description]
●
Selecting the bit image mode depending on the “m” value. (See chart below)
●
n1, n2 indicates the number of dots in horizontal direction.
n1: Remainder of the number of dots divided by 256.
n2: Quotient of the number of dots divided by 256.
●
The bit image of 48-bit is not supported.
●
The maximum number of dots in horizontal direction is as follows.

The number of dots is defined by (n1 + n2 × 256). Therefore, the number of data that needs to be sent is
defined as follows.
When ‘m’ = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 6:
n1 + n2 × 256
When ‘m’ = 32, 33, 38, or 39:
(n1 + n2 × 256) × 3
