[Description]
Sets the distance from the beginning of the line to the posi-
tion at which subsequent characters are to be printed.
The distance from the beginning of the line to the print posi-
tion is [(nL + nH

×
(vertical or horizontal motion unit)]
inches.
[Notes]
• Settings outside the specified printable area are ignored.
• The horizontal and vertical motion unit are specified by
GS P .
• GS P can change the horizontal (and vertical) motion unit.
However, the value cannot be less than the minimum horizon-
tal movement amount.
• In standard mode, the horizontal motion unit (x) is used.
• If the setting is outside the printing area width, it sets the
absolute print position, but the left or right margin is set at
default value.
