Full graphics mode (non-compressed mode)
In full graphics mode, all of the data is transferred in raster format.
Raster data that extends beyond the ((256 * nH) + nL) dot area boundary will be
automatically clipped or discarded.
The total amount of data sent is k = int((256 x nH + nL + 7)/8) x m bytes.
256*nH+nL dots
int((256*nH+nL+7)/8) bytes

Run-length encoding compression mode
In run-length encoding compression mode, the data to be printed is always
transferred in the format (counter) + (data), where counter represents one byte of
information.
If 0
≤
counter
≤
127, then the data following the counter is non-compressed data, and
the length of the compressed data is (c1 bytes.
If 128
≤
counter
≤
255, then the data following the counter will be one byte of
compressed data, . This single compressed byte of data is thereafter to be
repeated 257-(counter) times..
3) This function also increments the X printing position relative to the current X printing
position by the amount: (256 x nH + nL) x h/3600 x 25.4mm.
If this command specifies an X position in the non-printable area (right margin), the right
margin position is automatically reset to the X value of the new printing position.
4) If image data is designated for a non-printable area, then the image data designated for that
area is ignored.
The following parameter combinations are supported by this command:
