[Function]
Specifying the basic calculation pitch
[Code]
<1D>H<50>H<x><y>
[Range]
0≤x≤255, 0≤y≤255
[Outline]
[The specification which is common to the model]
• This command sets the horizontal basic calculation pitch to approx. 25.4/x mm (1/x inches), and the vertical
basic calculation pitch to approx. 25.4/y mm (1/y inches).
• If x = 0, the horizontal basic calculation pitch is reverted to the default value.
• If y = 0, the vertical basic calculation pitch is reverted to the default value.
[Caution]
[The specification which is common to the model]
• The horizontal direction is defined as the direction perpendicular to the paper feed, and the
vertical direction is defined as the paper feed direction.
• In STANDARD MODE, the following parameters are used regardless of the character orientation (e.g.
inverted or 90°-right-turned).
(1) Commands using x: ESC SP, ESC $, ESC
\
, FS S, GS L, GS W
(2) Commands using y: ESC 3, ESC J
• In PAGE MODE, the parameters used depend on the character orientation, as follows:
(1) If the start point specified by ESC T is the top left or bottom right (The characters are mapped in the
direction perpendicular to the paper feed):
• Commands using x: ESC SP, ESC $, ESC W, ESC
\
, FS S
• Commands using y: ESC 3, ESC J, ESC W, GS $, GS
\
(2) If the start point specified by ESC T is the top right or bottom left (The characters are mapped in the
paper feed direction):
• Commands using x: ESC 3, ESC J, ESC W, GS $, GS
\
• Commands using y: ESC SP, ESC $, ESC W, ESC
\
, FS S
• This command does not affect any other values that are already set.
• If calculations made in combination with another command generate fractions, the fractions are corrected
with the minimum pitch of the mechanism, and the remainder is omitted.
[Default]
