Programming 6-44
Plot, Odd Dot (P-Series Normal Density Graphics)
P-SERIES SERIAL MATRIX
ASCII Code : ENQ ENQ
Hex Code : 05 05
Purpose : Prints dots at the odd numbered dot columns.
Expression : CHR$(5); CHR$(5);
Comment : This is the P-Series programming normal density graphics control code. This
code should occur before any printable data in the data stream for maximum
throughput. A line feed (LF) defines the end of plot data may causes paper to
be advanced at the current print mode vertical resolution:1/72 inch for DP,
1/96 inch for Correspondence, and 1/48 inch for High Speed. For high density
graphics, the Even Dot Plot code (04 Hex) must be used in conjunction with
(and precede) the Odd Dot Plot code. More information is given in the
Graphics chapter.
When Plot mode is exited, the previously selected print mode and attributes
are reselected.
Example : The following program illustrates two normal density plot boxes using odd dot
plot. Compare the plot, even dot control code example.
