Command Codes
Plotting Graphics (Rows)
NOTE: The Plotting Graphics command is not supported on L7032 printers.
Purpose
Allows you to address and print any individual dot position using
Printronix odd and even dot plot commands. Odd and even dot
plot addresses each dot position using a row method (as
opposed to the column method created in Extended Graphics as
described on page 129.)

plot addresses each dot position using a row method (as
opposed to the column method created in Extended Graphics as

NOTE: Do not confuse this odd dot plot command, (cc)Q, with the graphics
plot command, (cc)Q, discussed on page 129. The odd dot plot

Comments
Graphics designed using this command cannot be stored in VGL
memory for future use. Once your graphic pattern prints, it is
automatically purged from VGL working memory.

In typical Printronix plotting, the binary pattern ASCII characters
supplied as data are used to address the character columns with
the Least Significant Bit (LSB) corresponding to the left-most dot
column. VGL, however, addresses the binary pattern of hex data
bytes in a "mirror image" of Printronix plotting, with the LSB
addressing the right-most dot position.

Two plot types are available and defined below: odd dot plot for
normal density and even dot plot for high density applications.
You must define each byte of each data line in plot format, which
is explained in the "Plot Data Byte Format" section on the next
page.
