100 Instructs the nested for/next loop to continue to read
and print subsequent rows until all eight rows have
been printed.
120 Tells the printer to print the word “smile” underneath
the graphic image.
When you’ve run this program, your result should be similar to the
picture illustrated in Figure F-9. Now try running the same program
again, with the following minor changes to lines 90 and 110:
*In line 20, change “10” to “15”.
.In line 40, change “Y” to “K”.
When your printer prints the new program, it will look like this:
SMILE
Figure F-10. “Smiling” in the 8x3-bit mode.
That’s how easy it is to print a picture using 8x3-bit mode! 8x3-bit
graphics mode is similar to the 8-bit mode, except that each bit in -
the data byte controls three pins, not just one. Thus, the 8x3-bit mode
will print the same image three times as wide and three times as dense
as the one shown in Figure F-9.
To print in the 8x3-bit mode, remember: just use < ESC> K to
set up the mode, and change the line spacing to 151120ths of an inch.
We hope you enjoy experimenting with 16-bit and 24-bit modes,
too-you just may unleash a creative streak you never knew you had!
