Esc T N Select Print Area Direction In Page Mode - SNBC BTP-R580II Programming Manual

[Range] 1 ≤ n ≤ 255
0 ≤ k ≤ 32
[Notes] • The horizontal tab position is stored as a value of [character width × n]. The
character width includes the right-side character spacing, and the double-width
characters are set with twice the width of normal characters.
• This command cancels the previous tab settings.
• When n = 8, the current position is moved to column 9.
• Up to 32 tab positions (k = 32) can be set. Data exceeding 32 tab positions is
processed as normal data.
• Tab positions are in ascending order and place a NUL code 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 settings.
• The previously specified tab positions do not change, even if the character width
changes.
• The character width is independent in standard and page mode.
[Default] The default tab positions are at intervals of 8 standard ASCII characters (12 × 24).

[Range] 0 ≤ n ≤ 3
n specifies print direction and starting position of print area:
n Print direction
0,48 Left to right
1,49 Bottom to top
2,50 Right to left
3,51 Top to bottom
[Notes] • When the command is input in standard mode, the printer executes only internal flag
operation. This command does not affect printing in standard mode.
• This command sets the starting position of the print data within the print area.
• Parameters for horizontal or vertical motion unit (x or y) differ as follows, depending
on the starting position of the print area:
① If the print starting position is the upper left or lower right of the print area, data is
