ESC "D" [n]k NUL
[Function] Setting the Horizontal tab position
[Code] <1B>H <44>H [n]k <00>H
[Range] 1 ≤ n ≤ 255
0 ≤ k ≤ 32
[Outline] This command sets the horizontal tab position. n denotes the number of columns from the
head of the line to the horizontal tab setting. k denotes the number of horizontal tab
positions to be set. The tab position is set at the character width × n from the head of the
line. The character width at this time includes the space to the right of the character; it will
be double the normal character width if the double width characters are selected.

<00>H. ESC D NUL clears all the set tab positions. HT is ignored after clearing.
[Caution] If the data <n>k is equal to or smaller than the preceding data <n>k - 1, it is assumed that
horizontal tab setting has been completed. If this is the case, the subsequent data will be
processed as normal data.
Up to 16 horizontal tabs can be set. The data beyond this limit are processed as normal
ones. If the data <n>k exceeds the one-line print range, set the "set column position =
maximum print columns + 1."
Even if the character width is changed after setting the horizontal tab position, the latter will
not change.
[Default] Every 8 characters (9th, 17th, 25th column, and so on)
