page and the direction in which the 4213 will print in relation to
the physical page.

where # = 0 is portrait
# = 1 is landscape.
The default orientation is portrait (0).
Left Margin
Purpose The Left Margin command sets the distance between the left
edge of the text and the left edge of the printable area
regardless of paper orientation.
The left margin is set as a column number. The width of a
column is determined by the Horizontal Motion Index (HMI)
command, which sets the horizontal spacing of characters in
fixed-pitch fonts. The HMI is used as a unit of measurement for
selecting the margin, but once set, the margin does not change
with later HMI commands.
The default left margin is at column zero, which is 50 pixels
(1/6th inch) from the left edge of the paper in portrait mode and
60 pixels (1/5th inch) from the left edge of the paper in
landscape mode.
Syntax

where # is the column number at which printing starts.
Note: If the Left Margin command specifies a column with a
value greater than that of the right margin, the command is
ignored.
