GS / m
[Designation] Print user-defined bit image
[Format] 1DH, 2FH, m
[Valid limits] 0 m 3, 48 m 51
[Initial value] ---
[Function] (1) Prints a user-defined bit image.
(2) Parameter m specifies a print mode.

(3) This command is ignored if user-defined bit image data has not been
defined.
(4) When standard mode is selected, this command is valid if there is no data in
the print buffer.
(5) This command does not affect print modes (such as emphasized printing,
underlining, and character size specification) other than inverted printing.
(6) If user-defined bit image data does not fit the print area, the excessive data is
ignored.
(7) If the print area width specified using the Set left margin command (GS L) or
Set printing area width command (GS W) is smaller than the minimum
horizontal width (1 dot for normal mode and double character height mode or
2 dots for double character width mode and quadruple size mode) of the bit
image, the processing given below is executed for that line:
a. The print area is enlarged to the right until it is equivalent to the minimum
horizontal width of the bit image. The print area is enlarged in the range
where the print area width is not exceeded.
b. If the processing operation in b. above cannot allocate sufficient area, the
print area is enlarged to the left. (The left margin is reduced.)
(8) This command begins user-defined bit image printing at the left end, if only
the print position is changed (without print data) by the following commands:
a. Horizontal tab (HT)
b. Set absolute print position (ESC $)
c. Set relative print position (ESC \)
