ESC $ nl n2
Decimal:
27 36 nl n2
Hexadecimal: 1B 24 n7 n2
Comments:
This sequence specifies the distance from the currently set left margin
that
subsequent characters are to be printed, using this formula: total
number of dots =
nl + (n2 X 256). Each unit equals 1/60th of an
inch. The sequence is ignored and the previous setting remains
effective if the position specified is beyond the right margin. This
command applies to both draft and NLQ.

Set Relative Position

ESC 1 nl n2
Decimal:
27 92 nl n2
Hexadecimal: 1B SC nl n2
Comments:
Determines the position (relative to the current position) at which
printing of following data will start. To find
nl
and n2, first calculate
the displacement required in l/l20ths of an inch. Send the resulting number
using this formula: total number of dots = nl + (n2 X 256). If the
displacement is to the left, subtract the number from 65536 before you
use the formula. The command is ignored if it would move the print
position outside the current margins. This command applies to both
draft and NLQ.
