6.2 Bitmap Printing
There are three methods of printing bitmaps. Use the one appropriate to your purpose.
6.2.1 Explanation of Bitmap Printing
1. Normal Bit-image
The PrintBitmap method is to directly print the bitmap. One bitmap printed by this method
is formed as a combination of “n” numbers of 1-line bitmaps. So, the width of the paper sets
the limit on the size of bitmap, and printing is slow. But the height of paper doesn’t set the
limit on the size of bitmap.
This printer prints Windows fonts by this method.
2. NV Bit-image
EPSON provides a tool, “TMFLogo” that enables registration of a bitmap image in the
NVRAM of an EPSON TM series printer. A bitmap image in the NVRAM can be printed
with a “control font” method.
Function list

No need.
- Available Available Select parameter
When printing
a different
bitmap each
time, this
method is
suitable.
Print
The bitmap data is sent to TM from PC
directly. Refer to the sample program of
APD for detail.
Slow
NV Bit-image
<width>
Less than paper width.
<height>
There is a limitation
Height length
= RAM Size / width length
High level
Store
Store bitmap to NVRAM by TMFLogo
utility. If store the bitmap in a NVRAM at
once, it is not necessary to restore unless
the NVRAM is deleted.
- Available Available Select parameter
When printing
a stored
bitmap that is
always used,
this method is
suitable..
(e.g. a shop
logo)
Print
Print stored bitmap by using “Control
font.” Refer the User’s Manual for detail.
