NOTES
Graphic images may be printed along with other data to enhance label appearance or
eliminate the need for preprinted label stock. Using a dot-addressable matrix, design
the graphic image in 8 x 8 dot blocks, then send it in a binary format to the printer.
Do not use <ESC>CR or <ESC>LF characters as line delimiters within graphic data or
the actual image will not be printed as specified. A custom graphic cannot be enlarged
by the Character Expansion <ESC>L command and is not affected by either of the
Rotation commands. Always design the graphic image in the appropriate orientation.
