[Description]
：
• n specifies the column number for setting a horizontal tab
position from the beginning of the line.
• k indicates the total number of horizontal tab positions to be
set.
• The horizontal tab position is stored as a value of [character
width × n] measured from the beginning of the line. The
character width includes the right-side character spacing, and
double-width characters are set with twice the width of
normal characters.
• This command cancels the previous horizontal tab settings.
• When setting n = 8, the print position is moved to column 9
by sending HT.
• Up to 32 tab positions ( k = 32) can be set. Data exceeding
32 tab positions is processed as normal data.
