Backspace
Comments:
Prints out data in the print buffer, then moves the print position
one space to the left. Backspacing is possible up to, but not
beyond, the left margin setting. The BS code is ignored if ESC a2
or ESC a3 has been sent. If this code is received immediately after
graphics printing, the print position of subsequent data is moved
back to the point at which graphics printing started.
ESC $ Set Absolute Print Position

ASCII code:
ESC $ n1 n 2
Decimal: 27 36 n1 n2
Hexadecimal: 1B 24 n1 n2
Comments:
This sequence specifies the distance from the current left margin
that subsequent characters are to be printed, using this formula:
total number of dots = n1 + (n2 x 256). Each unit equals 1/60th of
an inch. The sequence is ignored and the previous setting remains
effective if the position specified is beyond the right margin.
