Set horizontal tab positions
Syntax:
ESC D [n1 n2] NUL NUL or X'1B44[n1n2]0000'
Where:
n1 The high-order-byte dot offset for the horizontal tab.
n2 The low-order-byte dot offset for the horizontal tab.
Default:
There is a tab every 100 dots.
Remarks:
This command should be sent after “Set print station parameters” on page
43.
Up to 5 tab positions can be stored. All 5 n1 n2 value pairs can be included
in one command. Values must be entered in hex.
A tab is calculated from the left margin position.
Tab values must be in ascending order.
Example: To set 3 tab positions - at the 100, 150 and 300 dot positions:
v X'1B4400640096012C0000'
See “Horizontal tab” on page 71.
Set left margin position
Syntax:
ESC $ n1 n2 or X'1B24;n1;n2'
Where:
n1 The high-order byte of the dot offset from the beginning of the
print line.
n2 The low-order byte of the dot offset from the beginning of the
print line.
Default:
n1=0,n2=0
Remarks:
In the customer receipt station, 1 mm = 8 dots.
In the document station, 1 inch = 150 half-dots (75 dots).
n1 and n2 are hex values. Convert each to decimal. Then, use this formula
to get the decimal equivalent: (n1 × 256) + n2.
If the number exceeds the printable area, it is ignored.
