Moves the print position right or left a specified dis-
tance. Ignored if the resulting position is beyond the
right or left margin. The formula for the distance and
direction are as follows:
If n2 is between O and 63, the print head moves right by
(n] + 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 re&lt into high and low bytes.
The unit of movement is fixed at 1/120 inch in draft
mode and 1/180 inch in LQ mode.
