More about job boundaries
The tabs you enter with commands remain in effect until the
printer receives either a Tab Clear or a Reset command.
A Tabs Clear Horizontal command clears all horizontal tabs,
including defaults, until the end of the job or until a new Tabs
Horizontal is entered.
A Tabs Clear Vertical command clears all vertical tabs, including
defaults, until the end of the job or until a new Tabs Vertical.
If no tabs have been set for a job and a tab is indicated within its
contents, the printer automatically uses the following default
tabs:
Horizontal: Every sixth character from the left margin
Vertical: Every inch.
Note: If no tabs have been set for a job using a portrait font,
the 4213 automatically uses the default portrait tabs. If no tabs
have been set for a job using a landscape font, the 4213
automatically uses the default landscape tabs.
More about page boundaries
You may set a line of tabs in any numerical order on the page;
the printer sorts them in ascending order.
Ensure that your tab settings do not exceed the page
boundaries. A tab setting beyond page boundaries may cause a
page feed.
If you set a horizontal tab beyond the right margin, the printer
will process it as a space; no text will print beyond the margin. If
you set a vertical tab beyond a bottom margin, the printer will
process it as a page feed; no text will print beyond the margin.
Tabs Horizontal
Purpose Defines tabs across the page, measuring from the left edge of
the page. Whenever you press the tab key on the host computer
once the tabs are set, the printer skips from the current text
position to the next horizontal tab position.
