[Description]Sets the distance from the beginning of the line to the position at
whichsubsequent characters are to be printed.

•

The distance from the beginning of the line to the print position is

[( nL + nH * 256) *(vertical or horizontal motion unit)] inches.

[Note]

•

Settings outside the specified printable area are ignored.

•

In standard mode, the horizontal motion unit ( x) is used.

[Description]Selects or cancels the user-defined character set.

•

When the LSB of n is 0, the user-defined character set is canceled.

•

When the LSB of n is 1, the user-defined character set is selected.

[Note]When the user-defined character set is canceled,the internal character set is
automatically selected

[Description]Defines user-definedcharacters.

•

y specifies the number of bytes in the vertical direction.

•

c1 specifies the beginning character code for the definition, and c2 specifies the

final code

•

x specifies the number of dots in the horizontal direction.

[Note]

•

The allowable character code range is from ASCII code <20>H to <7E>H (95characters).

•

It is possible to define multiple characters for consecutive character codes.

If only one character is desired, use c1 = c2.

•

d is the dot data for the characters. The dot pattern is in the horizontal directionfrom the

left side. Any remaining dots on the right side are blank.

•

The data to define a user-defined character is

bytes.
