[Notes]
1. The data is transmitted in binary (8bit/1font data). Actual size of PCX file is the value to parameter “a”.
2. PCX file consists of the header part (the first 128 byte) and compressed graphic data.
3. If the total number of bytes of a PCX file is not consistent with actual send data, it may result in an operation failure.
4. The total number of bytes is displayed in the property of the file.
5. PCX file can be used only in black/white mode. A PCX file in color mode will result in a command error and no printing.
The command does not support compressed type of the PCX file. Make sure that file extension is PCX before printing.
6. Rotation<%>, Expansion<L> can be used in combination with this command.
