8.54 ^GE GRAPHIC ELLIPSE
Format: ^GEw,h,t,c
w = Ellipse width (in dots)
1 to 4095
When omitted: 2
* If the value after dot-to-mm conversion exceeds 300 mm, it is corrected to 300 mm.
h = Ellipse height (in dots)
1 to 4095
When omitted: 2
* If the value after dot-to-mm conversion exceeds 300 mm, it is corrected to 300 mm.
t = Line width (in dots)
1 to 4095
When omitted: 1
*1 If the line width equals to or exceeds the shorter radius, the ellipse becomes a painted-over
drawing.
*2 In the case of Zebra, if the line width is set to 2 or less or omitted, printing is performed with line
width 2. In the case of Oki Data, printing is performed with line width 1.
c = Line color
B : Black
W : White
When omitted: B
*1
If the drawing coordinates exceed the head width, the exceeding portion is wrapped around for printing.
(In the case of Zebra, drawing exceeding the head width is not performed.)
*2
Since the line is thickened outward from the specified coordinates, the coordinates needs to be
specified after adding to or subtracting from the specified coordinates the thickness to thicken the line
inward. (In the case of Zebra, the line is thickened inward.)
*3
In the case of Zebra, if the ellipse width (ellipse height) is set to 3 or less or omitted, the value of the
ellipse height (ellipse width) is not applied to printing and a point is drawn.
In the case of Oki Data, if the ellipse width (ellipse height) is set to 3 or less or omitted, printing is
performed with width (height) 2 and the set ellipse height (ellipse width).
