Set vertical line spacing
ASCII
ESC 3 n
Hexadecimal
1B 33 n
Decimal
27 51 n
Value of n:
n/406 inch in A795 native mode
n/360 inch in A793 emulation mode
n/203 inch in TM-T88 emulation mode
Range of n:
0-255
Default:
3.37 mm (0.13 inch)
Sets the line spacing to n/16 mm (n/406 inch).
The minimum line spacing is 8.5 lines per inch. The line
spacing equals the character height when n is too small.
If the set horizontal and vertical minimum motion units
command (1D 50) is used to change the horizontal and
vertical minimum motion unit, the parameters of this
command (set line spacing) will be interpreted
accordingly.

Set horizontal tab positions
ASCII
ESC D [n]…k NUL
Hexadecimal
1B 44 [n]…k 00
Decimal
27 68 [n]…k 0
Value of n:
Column number for tab minus one.
(n is always less than or equal to the
current selected column width)
Value of k:
0-32
Default:
Every 8 characters from column
1 (9, 17, 25, etc.) for normal print.
Sets up to 32 horizontal tab positions n columns from
column one, but does not move the print position. See the
horizontal tab command (09).
The tab positions remain unchanged if the character
widths are changed after the tabs are set. The command
ends with hexadecimal 00; hexadecimal 1B 44 00 clears
all tabs.
Tabs assumed to be in strictly ascending order. A tab out
of order terminates the command string as if it were 00,
and remaining tab values are taken as normal data.
Formulas
Set the tab positions in ascending order and put Hex 00 at
the end.
Hex 1B 44 00 (number of tabs not specified) clears all tab
positions.
Exceptions
The tabs cannot be set higher than the column width of the
current pitch:
Standard pitch =
44 columns
Compressed pitch = 56 columns
