Gs P X Y Set The Horizontal And Vertical Motion Units - SNBC BTP-R580II Programming Manual

• This command does not affect printing in page mode.
• If the setting exceeds the maximum printable width, the maximum printable width will
be used.
• The horizontal and vertical motion units are specified by GS P. Changing horizontal
and vertical motion unit does not affect the current left margin.
[Default] nL = 0, nH = 0
[Relative] GS P, GS W
[Example] 0A(Set printing position to the beginning of the line)

Result:

GS P x y Set the horizontal and vertical motion units

[Function] Set the horizontal and vertical motion units to approximately 25.4/ x mm (1/ x inches)
and approximately 25.4/ y mm {1/ y inches}, respectively.
[Format] ASCII
Hex
Decimal 29
[Range] 0 ≤ x ≤ 255
0 ≤ y ≤ 255
[Notes] • When x and y are 0, the x and y are set to be default settings.
• The horizontal direction is perpendicular to the paper feed direction and the vertical
direction is the paper feed direction.
• In standard mode, the following commands use x or y, regardless of character
rotation (upside-down or 90° clockwise rotation):
 ① Commands using x: ESC SP, ESC $, ESC \, FS S, GS L, GS W
 ② Commands using y: ESC 3, ESC J, GS V
• In page mode, the following commands use x or y, depending on the direction and
GS P x y
1D 50 x y
80 x y
