[Notes]
Set horizontal tab positions.
• n specifies the column number for setting a horizontal tab position from the beginning of
a line.
• k indicates the total number of horizontal tab positions to be set.
•
ESC D NUL
cancels all tab positions.
• The horizontal tab position is stored as a value of [character width × n] measured from
the beginning of a line. The character width includes the right-side character spacing,
and double-width characters are set with twice the tap distance of normal characters.
• This command cancels the previous tab position settings.
• Up to 32 tab positions (k = 32) can be set. Data exceeding 32 tab positions is processed
as normal data.
• When [n] k is less than or equal to the preceding value [n] k-1, tab setting is finished and
the following data is processed as normal data.
• ESC D NUL cancels all tap position settings;
• The previously specified horizontal tab positions do not change, even if the character
width changes.
[Default]
The default tab positions are at intervals of 8 characters for Font B.
