I am not very sure of how raster graphics works.    I believe the character is drawn up on a eight
by eight or more raster or perhaps less, e.g.:

128          x                 x             sum(1 to 128) = 256dec = FFh
64            x                 x              16 + 8 = 24dec = 18h
32            x                 x
16            x x x x x x x x
   8            x x x x x x x x             this would then produce a eight digit number: 256,
   4            x                 x           24,24,24,24,24,24,256 by  adding the relative numbers
   2            x                 x             together for each column.    Would I then be
   1            x                 x             required to send (all in hex):

"1b 2a 62 8 57 FF 18 18 18 18 18 18 FF" to the printer to print this H character ?
    Have I got it right ?

To reply remove the numeral before the @ in my e-mail address
