2. HT
[Name]
Horizontal tab
[Format]
ASCII
Hex
Decimal
[Description] Moves the print position to the next horizontal tab position.
[Details]
• This command is ignored unless the next horizontal tab position has been set.
• If the next horizontal tab position exceeds the printing area, the printer sets the
printing position to [Printing area width + 1].
• Horizontal tab positions are set with ESC D.
• If this command is received when the printing position is at [printing area width
+ 1], the printer executes print buffer-full printing of the current line and
horizontal tab processing from the beginning of the next line.
• The default setting of the horizontal tab position for the paper roll is font A
(12 ╳ 24) every 8th character (9th, 17th, 25th, ... column).
