GRAPHIC FUNCTIONS
Fill Area: logic byte, X1, Y1 (upper left corner), X2, Y2 (lower right corner).
ESC A l xxx yyy xxx yyy
Draw Box: logic byte, X1, Y1 (upper left hand corner) X2, Y2 (lower right hand corner).
ESC B l xxx yyy xxx yyy
Clear Screen: This command will clear the current graphic screen (all pixels off). To clear all graphics
pages, see the ESC G sequence.
ESC C
Set Pixel (Dot) Command: logic byte (l), x,y pixel address, end of data delimiter.
ESC D l xxx yyy ESC \(single pixel)
ESC D l xxx yyy xxx yyy ....... ESC \ (continuous)
Draw Ellipse: logic byte, major axis intercept offset, minor axis intercept offset (axis’s intercept offset is
measured in pixels from the center point), center point, from angle theta (t), in degrees, to phi (p). A
complete rotation would be from 001 to 360.
ESC E l mmm www xxx yyy ttt ppp
Clear all graphics pages.
ESC G
Write Graphic Image: logic byte, X1, Y1 (upper left hand corner), X2, Y2 (width and height), data.
ESC I l xxx yyy xxx yyy ddd ....
X1 start coordinate and X2 width must both be multiples of 8. The number of data bytes transmitted
must be equal to (X2 width / 8) * Y2 height. The first data byte transmitted will map into the 8 pixels on
the top line in the upper left hand corner of the image with the least significant bit at the left and the most
significant bit at the right. Successive bytes will write to the next byte to the right. When all bytes are
written for this line, the next byte will map into the left most byte of the next line down.
Graphical representation of each data byte:
lsb x x x x x x msb
Graphical representation of data array:

data(width/8)
data(width/8 + 1) ...
data(2*width/8) data(2*width/8 + 1) ...
data(n*width/8) data(n*width/8 + 1) ...
data(height-1)*(width/8)...data(height)*(width/8)-1
Contact factory for free image editor and monochrome bitmap conversion utilities.
Read Graphic image: X1, Y1 (upper left corner), X2, Y2 (lower right corner).
ESC J xxx yyy xxx yyy
Graphic image information is returned by the display after receipt of this command. X1 start coordinate
and X2 width must both be multiples of 8. Refer to the WRITE GRAPHIC IMAGE command for the data
format returned by the display.
Draw Line(s): logic byte, X1, Y1 (beginning of line), X2, Y2 (end of line), data delimiter
(for single lines)
ESC L l xxx yyy xxx yyy ESC \
(for continuous lines)
ESC L l xxx yyy xxx yyy ..... xxx yyy ESC /
