Left margin Printing width
[Details]
This command is effective only of the beginning of a line.
If this command is input in page made, the printer performs only internal flag operations.
This command does not affect printing in page made.
If the setting exceeds the printable area, the maximum value of the printable area is used.
The horizontal and vertical motion units are specified by
GS P
. Changing the horizontal or
vertical motion unit does not affect the current left margin.
The horizontal motion unit (x) is used for calculating the left margin.
The calculated result is truncated to the minimum value of the mechanical pitch.

[Description]
Sets the horizontal and vertical motion units to 1/x inch and 1/y inch, respectively.
When x and u are set to 0, the default setting of each value is used. (
x
= 180,
y
= 360)
[Details]
The horizontal direction is perpendicular to the paper feed direction and
the vertical direction is the paper feed direction.
In standard mode, the following commands use x or y, regardless character rotation
(upside-down or 90
°
clockwise rotation):
①
Command using x :
ESC SP, ESC $, ESC
\
\
\
\
, FS S, GS L, GS W
②
Command using y :
ESC 3, ESC J, GS V
In page mad, the following command use x or y, depending on character orientation:
℃When the print starting position is set to the upper left or lower right of the printing area using
ESC T
(data is buffered in the direction perpendicular to the paper feed direction):
Command using x :
ESC SP, ESC $, ESC W, ESC
\
\
\
\
, FS S
Command using y :
ESC 3, ESC J, ESC W, GS $, GS
\
\
\
\
, GS V
℃When the print starting position is set to the upper right or lower left of the printing area using

The command does not affect the previously specified values.
The calculated result from combining this command with others is truncated to the minimum value
of the mechanical pitch.
