• The current code tables, print intensity and printing speed are not reset.
• If switch 5 is OFF, the command clears the downloaded font and bit image too.

23. ESC D [ n ] k NUL
Setting Horizontal Tab Position
[Code]
[1Bh] + [44h] + n
1
+ … + n
k
+ [00h]
[Range]
{0 <= n <= FFh}
{0 <= k <= 20h}.
[Outline] Specifying a horizontal tab position.
• "n" indicates the no. of columns from the beginning to the horizontal tab position. At this time,
n= set position 1 is to be specified. For example, to set the position at 9th column, n=8 is to be
specified.
• k denotes the number of horizontal tab positions you want to set.
• The tab position is set at position where it is "character width x n" from
the line beginning. The character width, at this time, includes the rightward space amount. In
double wide characters, it is made double of the ordinary case.
• Tab positions can be specified are maximum 32. Specifying exceeding this is ignored.
• <n> k, which denotes a setting position, is input in the increasing order and ends at <00>H.
• ESC D NUL clears all the set tab positions. Following clearing, horizontal tab command is
ignored.
[Caution] When the data, <n> k, is equal to or smaller than its preceding data, <n>k-1, it is assumed that tab
setting is finished. If this is the case, the next data onward will be processed as normal data. When
the data, <n> k, exceeds a 1-line print area, set the horizontal tab position, assuming "Set digit
position = Maximum print 1." The horizontal tab position does not change even if the
character width is altered after setting the horizontal tab position.
[Default] • Initial value is specified for each eight characters(9
th
.17
th
.25
th
column).

24. ESC E n
Specifying/canceling highlighting
[Code]
[1Bh] + [45h] + n
[Range]
{0 <= n <= FFh}
[Outline] Specifying/canceling the highlighting characters.
• "n" is valid only for the lowest bit (n0).
• Control by the lowest bit (n0) is shown as follows:
0
Canceling highlighting.
1
Specifying highlighting.
• This is effective to all characters of font A.
• Characters of font B are not highlighted.
• Dot configuration of a highlighted character includes one extra dot added at its side.
[Caution] • The print result of Double printing and highlight character printing is completely same.

25. ESC G n
Specifying/canceling Double Printing (ESC G n)
[Code]
[1Bh] + [47h] + n
[Range]
{0 <= n <= FFh}
[Outline] Specifying/canceling the double printing.
• "n" is valid only for the lowest bit (n0).
• Control by n is shown as follows.
0
Canceling double printing.
1
Specifying double printing.
• This is effective to all characters of font A.
• Characters of font B are not highlighted.
[Caution] • The print result of Double printing and highlight character printing is completely same.
