Set absolute horizontal print position
1BH, 28H, 24H, nL, nH, m1, m2, m3, m4
nL = 04H, nH = 00H (number of bytes to follow)
0 <= m <= 73264
1) The printing position in the positive X direction is set to:
The maximum Absolute Horizontal Position (AHP) is 323.074mm or (45790/3600 =)
12.719 inches.
Position Count (c) is given by:
c = m4*256*256*256 + m3*256*256 + m2*256 + m1
