Absolute Horizontal Tab ESC [ n `
Sets the current print position to column n. The actual position will depend on the current character
spacing. If n is less than the left margin, the active column will be set to the left margin. If n is greater
than the right margin, then a line feed will be performed and the active column will be set to the left
margin.
Example: The following escape sequence will set the active column to column 65.

Relative Horizontal Tab ESC [ n a
Advances the current print position by n columns. The actual distance moved will depend on the
current character spacing. Equivalent to sending n spaces (SP).
Example: The following escape sequence will advance the active column by 10 columns. If current
character spacing is 10 cpi, this will cause the print position to move one inch to the right.
