[Function]
Uses the left edge as a standard to set the left margin (current ANK character pitch x n).
Setting this command partway will take affect from the next line.
Character spacing is included in the character pitch but is unaffected by expansion settings.
The left margin set using this command is unaffected by changing the character pitch.

The right edge is also the reference for upside-down printing.
This command is ignored if settings are for a printing region less than 36 mm.
<Slip>, <Validation>
The left edge is also the reference for upside-down printing.
The left margin must be at least a minimum of 18 dots therebetween with the right margin. (*1)
If the printable region as set by the left and right margins is smaller than one character, including
the space between characters, printing is not possible. A question mark (?) is printed instead of the
character.
