[Name] Set horizontal and vertical motion units
[Format] ASCII GS P x y
Hex 1D 50 x y
Decimal 29 80 x y
[Range] 0 ≤ x, y ≤ 255
[Description] Sets the horizontal and vertical motion units to 1/x inch and
1/y inch respectively.
When x is set to 0, the default setting value is used.
When y is set to 0, the default setting value is used.
[Notes] • The horizontal direction is perpendicular to the paper feed
direction.
• In standard mode, the following commands use x or y, re-
gardless of character rotation (upside-down or 90° clockwise
rotation):
Q Commands using x : ESC SP, ESC $, ESC \, GS L, GS
W.
R Commands using y : ESC 3, ESC J.
• This command does not affect the previously specified
values.
• The calculated result from combining this command with
others is truncated to the minimum value of the mechanical
pitch or an exact multiple of that value.
[Default] x = 204, y = 408 (for the 204 dpi model)
x = 300, y = 600 (for the 300 dpi model)
