Horizontal Margins
Printing is allowed only within the left and right margins. Exceeding the right margin
will cause line wrap, setting the current print position to the left margin and
advancing the paper one line.
Set Left Margin ESC l n
Sets the left margin to column n at the current character spacing. If character spacing
is changed after setting the left margin, the position of the left margin will not change.
The left margin is inclusive. For example, a left margin at column 10 still allows a
character to be printed in column 10.
The leftmost column is column zero. The left margin must be left of the right margin
and ≥13.4 inches. Invalid left margins will be ignored. Overrides the "Left Mar:"
value in the "Setup: FORM" menu.
Example: The following escape sequence will set a one inch left margin, if character
spacing is currently 10 cpi.
Escape Sequence: ESC l 10
Hexadecimal: 1B 6C 0A
Set Right Margin ESC Q n
Sets the right margin to column n at the current character spacing. If character
spacing is changed after setting the right margin, the position of the right margin will
not change.
The right margin is exclusive. For example, a right margin at column 75 allows a
character to be printed in column 74, but not in column 75.
The leftmost column is column zero. The right margin must be right of the left
margin and ≤13.6 inches. Invalid right margins will be ignored. Overrides the "Right
Mar:" value in the "Setup: FORM" menu.
Example: The following escape sequence will set a right margin 7.5 inches from the
left edge of the form, if character spacing is currently 10 cpi. For a standard 8.5 inch
wide form, this would result in a one inch right margin.
Escape Sequence: ESC Q 75
