When data being held in the print buffer, this command is ignored.

Regardless of the specified feed pitch, this command feeds the paper to be
required to print a bar code.

If the character code d cannot be printed in the respective bar code system, the
bar code so far will be printed, processing the subsequent data as normal data.

When a bar code whose number of characters to be printed is fixed has been
selected, the number of characters k have to be always made equal to the
number of characters to be printed. (The bar code is not printed when not
matching.)

When the horizontal direction exceeds one line length, the excess part is not
printed.

compressed to 8 columns.
