RASTER IMAGE GRAPHICS
These commands utilize the raster area. Before sending data, set the presentation mode, the
resolution, the compression mode, the raster height and width, and start raster graphics. These
parameters are in effect until you overwrite them with a different command or there is a printer
reset. To ensure that the printed image appears in the expected area, set width and height
parameters.
