[Description] Sets horizontal tab positions.
n specifies the column number (counted from the beginning of the line) for setting
a horizontal tab position.
k indicates the total number of horizontal tab positions to be set.
[Notes] • This command is valid only when the receive buffer capacity is 40 bytes (when
DIP switch 1-2 is on).
• The tab position is set at [character width x n] from the beginning of the line.
The character width includes the right-side space of the character, and is twice
the normal value when double-width is specified.
• This command deletes horizontal tab positions that have already been set.
When "n = 8" has been set for the horizontal tab position, the printing position
moves to the ninth digit when HT is executed.
• Up to 32 tab positions can be set. Data exceeding 32 tab positions is processed
as normal data.
Input <n>k in ascending order and place a NUL code <00>H 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 tabl positions.
• The previously specified horizontal tab positions do not change, even if the
character width changes.
[Default] The default tab positions are at intervals of 8 characters (columns 9, 17, 25, ...) for
font B (7 × 9).
