n2
Moves the print position right or left a specified distance. Ignored if
the resulting position is beyond the rightor left margin. The formulas
for the distance and direction are as follows:
If n2 is between Oand 63, the print head moves right by (}?1+ n2 x
256) dots.
If you want to move the print head to the left, nl and n2 are obtained
by subtracting the value from 65536, and dividing the result into
high and low bytes.
The unit of movement is fixed at 1/120inch in draft mode and 1/180
inch in LQ mode.
