Set Intercharacter Space
69
A maximum of 32 horizontal tabs can be set.
The printer does not move the print position to any tabs beyond
the right-margin position. However, all tab settings are stored in
the printer’s memory; if you move the right margin, you can
access previously ignored tabs.
The printer calculates tab positions based on 10 cpi if
proportional spacing is selected with the ESC p command.
The default is every eight characters.

Comment A DBCS character with a half-width feature set by the FS SI
command is treated as an SBCS character.
This command also affects an SBCS character if the character
is aligned with DBCS by the FS U command.
If the SBCS character is aligned with the DBCS character, the
intercharacter space of the SBCS character is half of
n
1
and
n
2.
This command affects the front panel setting of “DBCS CPI.”
The default is
n

= 0,
n

= 3.
