A dot printer is presented having an arrangement of dot emitters which is suitable for producing various line widths in a vector graphics mode as well as producing lines and characters of various sizes in a raster scan mode. The printer has emitters arranged in a pattern having one emitter in each row and in each column of the pattern. The pattern is formed from primitive dot patterns which can be utilized in the vector graphics mode to produce vectors of various line widths. The generation of dots is controlled to produce rounded terminations of line segments. |
