ESC SP n
[Function] Setting the right spacing of the character
[Code] <1B>H<20>H<n>
[Range] 0
n 255
[Outline] Sets the right spacing of character to [n × basic calculation pitch]
inches.
[Caution] • If the horizontal magnification of character is 2 or more, the
right spacing increases with the magnification.
• The right spacing can be set separately for the STANDARD
and PAGE MODES.
• The basic calculation pitch is set by GS P. Once defined, the
right spacing is not changed if the basic calculation pitch is
changed by GS P.
• Fractions resulting from calculation are corrected with the
minimum pitch of the mechanism, and the remainder is
omitted.
• In STANDARD MODE, this command uses the horizontal basic
calculation pitch (x).
• In PAGE MODE, the basic calculation pitch used by this
command depends on the start point:
(1) If the start point specified by ESC T is top left or bottom
right, the command uses the horizontal basic calculation
pitch (x).
(2) If the start point specified by ESC T is top right or bottom
left, the command uses the vertical basic calculation pitch
(y).
• The maximum right spacing is capable of approximately 31.906
mm (255/203 inches). A setting greater than this maximum is
trimmed to the maximum.
[Default] n = 0
