<Z>
[Note]
1. Data must be sent in binary format (outputs 8 bits as 1 font data). (BMP file size is “total bytes”, BMP file data is “data”)
2. The first 62 bytes of the BMP file is used for the header and the remainder is the BMP image data.
3. If the total bytes of BMP file does not match the transfer data, an error may occur.
4. Total bytes is the file size indicated in the properties.
5. Only black and white non-compressed BMP files can be stored. Color BMP files will cause an error. Make sure to check the file extension is
[BMP] before printing.
6. The Card Slot <CC> command must be sent prior to this command.
