Unit 1: PCL Emulation Page 1-30 SATO D512 PCL Programming Manua l RASTER IMAGE GRAPHICS These commands utilize the raster area. Before sending data, set the presen tation mode, the resolution, the compression mode, the raster he ight and width, and start raste r graphics.
Unit 1: PCL Emulation SATO D512 PCL Programming Man ual Page 1-31 U NCODED D ATA Uncoded Data is not compressed. Only those bytes n eeded to form the image are sent. Each bit represents a single dot. In the first byte, bit 7 corresponds to the first dot in the raster row, bit 5 to the th ird dot, and so forth.
Unit 1: PCL Emulation Page 1-32 SATO D512 PCL Programming Manua l R UN -L ENGTH E NCODED D ATA Run-Length Encoded Data is interprete d in pairs of bytes. The first byte: • Acts as a counter , or control byte. • Indicates how many times to repe at the data in the secon d byte.
Unit 1: PCL Emulation SATO D512 PCL Programming Man ual Page 1-33 T AGGED I MAGE F ILE F ORMAT TIFF “Packbits” contain a control b yte (a signed number) that indicates whether the raster data bytes are to be repe ated (up to 127 times) or printed as encoded data.
Unit 1: PCL Emulation Page 1-34 SATO D512 PCL Programming Manua l D ELTA R OW Delta Row is a compression mode that ide ntifies and transmits only those bytes different from the ones in a precedi ng row. The control byte consists of two parts: • High 3 bits: Numbe r of bytes to replace +1 (1 to 8).
Unit 1: PCL Emulation SATO D512 PCL Programming Man ual Page 1-35 A DAPTIVE C OMPRESSI ON Adaptive compression allows the co mbined use of compression methods 0 through 3 (Uncoded, Run-Length Encoded, TIFF, and Delta Row). It also allows the printing of empty rows (all zeros) or duplicate rows.
Unit 1: PCL Emulation Page 1-36 SATO D512 PCL Programming Manua l Z LIB Zlib is a generic compression method. It refe rs to a standard for compression as well as the library that implements the standard. The zlib compression method uses the deflate algorithm.
Unit 1: PCL Emulation SATO D512 PCL Programming Man ual Page 1-37 G ROUP 3 AND G ROUP 4 R ASTER C OMPRESSION Since Group 4 images do not use line endings, the wid th of the image must be specified using the Raster Width command ( ESC *r#S). The compressed image data is sen t to the printer using the Transfer Raster Data command ( ESC *b#W).
Unit 1: PCL Emulation Page 1-38 SATO D512 PCL Programming Manua l MACROS When creating a macro, first assign it an ID number. If th is number is identical to a n existing macro ID in RAM, the old macro is deleted when you specify the Macro Control Start Definition.
