Format:
ASCII code: ESC $ nl n2
Decimal:
27 36 nl n2
Hexadecimal: 1B 24 nl n2
Comments:
This sequence specifies the distance from the 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

Set Relative Position
Format:
ASCII code: ESC
nl n2
Decimal:
27 92 nl n2
Hexadecimal: 1B 5C 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
dots.
If the displacement is to the left,
subtract it from 65536. Send the resulting number using this formula:
total number of dots
=
nl
+ (256 x
n2).
The command is ignored if
it would move the print position outside the current margins. A unit
is 1/120th of an inch in draft, and 1/180th of an inch in Letter
Quality or proportional.
