Extended to right
①
Left margin
Reduce left margin
②
If the printing area width cannot be extended sufficiently, the right space is
③
reduced.
If the width set for the printing area is less than one line in vertical, the following
processing is
performed only on the line in question when data other than
character data (e.g., bit image,
user-defined bit image) is developed:
①
The printing area width is extended to the right to accommodate one line in
vertical
for the bit image within the printable area.
②
If the printing area width cannot be extended sufficiently, the left margin is
reduced
to accommodate one line in vertical.
The commands which set the printing area width for bit image printing and its
minimum widths
are as follows:
Bit image (ESC *) :
Single density mode = 2 dots
Double density mode = 1 dot
Downloaded bit image (GS /):
Double width mode or Quadruple mode = 2 dots
Normal mode or Double-height mode = 1 dot
NV bit image (FS p) :
Double width mode or Quadruple mode = 2 dots
Normal mode or Double-height mode = 1 dot
Raster bit image (GS v 0) :
Double width mode or Quadruple mode = 2 dots
Normal mode or Double-height mode = 1 dot

[Description]
Sets the relative vertical print starting position from the current position in page mode.
This command sets the distance from the current position to [(
nL
+
nH
x 256)
vertical or
horizontal motion unit] inches.
[Details]
This command is ignored unless page mode is selected.
When pitch N is specified to the movement downward:
nL
+
nH
x 256 = N
When pitch N is specified to the movement upward (the negative direction), use
the
complement of 65536.
When pitch N is specified to the movement upward:
nL
+
nH
x 256 = 65536 – N
