Send BMP image with SG command in TPCL

[GabiAndi]

I am currently developing a connector for a Toshiba printer. The plugin is written in Python and everything seems to work fine. However I can't send BMP images. In the toshiba manuals it is simply described that the SG command should be sent as follows:

{SG;x,y,width,height,2(BMP mode),graphic_data|}

Any graphic_data you send is taken as a command error. I've tried sending the image with and without a header, but it doesn't seem to work.

I did not find information about it, so I ask this question here. Thanks.

PS: sorry for my bad english

Hi GabiAndi,

ich have the same problem with the SG-Commend. Do you have a solution now ?

Thanks Rudi

Hello! I couldn't find a solution. In fact, in the company where I work we are printing labels without images. Trying to reverse engineer Toshiba's proprietary program that designs labels, I couldn't figure out how they treat the data.
