ESC D [n] k NULL

[Function] Setting horizontal tab position
[Code] <1B>H<44>H [<n>] k<00>H
[Range] 1≤n≤255
0≤k≤32
[Outline] [The specification which is common to the model]
• Specifying a horizontal tab position.
• "n" indicates the number of columns from the beginning to the horizontal tab position. Note, however, that "n =
set position – 1". For example, to set the position at 9th column, n = 8 is to be specified.
• "k" denotes the number of horizontal tab positions you want to set.
• The tab position is set at a position where it is "character width×n" from the beginning of a line. The character
width, at this time, includes the space on the right. In double width characters, it is made double the ordinary
case.
• Tab positions that can be specified are maximum 32. Specifying tab positions exceeding this limit is ignored.
• <n> k, which denotes a setting position, is input in the increasing order and ends at 00H.
• ESC D <NULL> clears all the set tab positions. Following clearing, the horizontal tab command is ignored.
[Caution] [The specification which is common to the model]
• When the data, <n> k, is equal to or smaller than its preceding data, <n> k-1, it is assumed that
tab setting is finished. If this is the case, the next data onward will be processed as normal data.
• When the data, <n> k, exceeds a 1-line print area, set the horizontal tab position, as "Set column position =
Maximum print columns + 1".
• The horizontal tab position does not change even if the character width is altered after setting the horizontal
tab position.
[Default] At the selection of font A, tabs are set every 8 characters (at 9th, 17th, 25th, ...) with right space amount of a
character set at 0 and horizontal enlargement rate of a character set at 1.
