Sets horizontal tab positions.

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.

Transmit [n] k in ascending order and place a NUL code 0 at the end.

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 horizontal tab positions.

The previously specified horizontal tab positions do not change, even if the character
width changes.

The character width is memorized for each standard and page mode.
The default tab positions are at intervals of 8 characters (columns 9, 17, 25, ...) for font A
(12 × 24).

Turns emphasized mode on or off

When the LSB of n is 0, emphasized mode is turned off.

When the LSB of n is 1, emphasized mode is turned on.

Only the least significant bit of n is enabled.

This command and ESC ! turn on and off emphasized mode in the same way.

Be careful when this command is used with ESC ! .
