410 ECA Operators Manual
CHAPTER 6: LOGOS
The Microcom 410 ECA printer is capable of storing two logos at 0 and 180 degree rotations, or
one logo in four (0 ,90, 180, and 270 degree) rotations. You may either use the Microcom "OGO"
software to create an OGO file from a downsized PCX of PCC file, or use your own software to
format a graphics file into a form that the printer can understand.
The only limitation in graphic design is the 248 X 248 pixel resolution due to memory restraints.
Though this resolution is sufficient for most applications, Microcom has PC software available that
will convert PCX and PCC files.
Remember: Use the X and Y format multiplier features to increase the size of your logo past the
248 by 248 window.
GOOD IDEA:
Create your own software to manipulate graphic files into the OGO format.
BETTER IDEA:
Use the "OGO" software to turn your PCX file into the OGO format.
