[Caution] • 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.
[Default] • The initial value is not specified.
