[Description] Sets horizontal tab positions.
• n specifies the column number for setting a horizontal tab position from the beginning of the
line.
• k indicates the total number of horizontal tab positions to be set.
[Details]
• The horizontal tab position is stored as a value of [character width × n] measured from the
beginning of the line. The character width includes the right-side character spacing, and
double-width characters are set with twice the width of normal characters.
• This command cancels the previous horizontal tab settings.
• When setting n = 8, the print position is moved to column 9 by sending HT.
• Up to 32 tab positions (k = 32) can be set. Data exceeding 32 tab positions is processed as
normal data.
• Transmit [n]k in ascending order and place a NUL code 0 at the end.
• When [n]k is less than or equal to the preceding value [n]k-1, tab setting is finished and the
following data is processed as normal data.
• ESC D NUL cancels all horizontal tab positions.
• The previously specified horizontal tab positions do not change, even if the character width
changes.
• The character width is memorized for each standard and page mode.
[Default] The default tab positions are at intervals of 8 characters (columns 9, 17, 25,...) for font A (12
×
24).
