[Description] Sets the horizontal tabs.
•
n specifies the number of columns for setting a horizontal tab from the beginning of the
line.
•
k indicates the total number of horizontal tabs to be set.
[Notes] • The horizontal tab position is stored as a value of [character width x n ] measured from
the beginning of the line. The width of the character includes the space to the right of the
character and double width characters are set with a width which is double that of
normal characters.
• This command cancels the previous horizontal tab setting.
• When setting n = 8, the print position is moved to column 9 by sending
HT .
• Up to 32 tab positions can be set ( k = 32). Any data exceeding the 32 tabs is
processed as normal data.
• Transmit [
n ] k in ascending order and put a code 0 NUL at the end. When [ n ] k is
less than or equal to the preceding value [ n ] k -1, tab setting is finished and the
following data is processed as normal data.
• This command cancels all horizontal tab positions.
• The previously specified horizontal tab positions do not change, even if the character
width changes.
[Default] The default tabs are at intervals of 8 characters (columns 9, 17, 25, …) for the A Font
when the space to the right of the character is 0.
