Method and circuit arrangement for writing rastered characters

摘要

A write head (17) which has recording elements (21 to 28) in a vertical row for generating characters from individual points during a transverse displacement along a recording carrier is used both for generating small-area characters and for generating large-area characters. In both cases, the characters are generated by a twin recording process, the write head (17) being offset in height by one raster line between the two recording processes for small-area characters but is offset in height by the height of one raster (37) for large-area characters. <IMAGE>
