The IMAGEN laser printer "SET_MAGNIFICATION" command magnifies a bitmap image in both the horizontal and vertical directions. We would like to be able to expand in a selected direction. The QMS laser printer supports expansion in either direction using the command "^IP nn mm". Is is possible to do this on an IMAGEN printer (work around, or planned future releases of the imagen firmware)??? The QMS laser printer supports run line encoding of pixel data using the commands "^B", "^C", and "^D". For example, if the next 64 pixels were turned on, the command "^(^B008^)" could be used to represent 64 one's. Again, is it possible to do this on an IMAGEN printer (work around, or planned future releases of the imagen firmware)??? Any constructive ideas would be helpful. Thanks. Keith
