Sets right margin.
This code specifies the right margin, i.e., the right end of the print
area.
The length from the left end of the column to the right end is the
character width (character size), when this code is input, multiplied
by n. This code must be specified at the head of a line. There are
maximum and minimum values for n in each print mode and if their
range as below is exceeded, n will be ignored and the previous setting
will remain in effect.

In Proportional print mode, the print column width is set in pica-sized
character size.
The values for the right margin in the Enlarged print mode will be
one half of the respective values shown above. If the result is a
fraction, the value will be rounded down.

NOTES:
1. For the FX-80, if the right or left margin is not specified, the buffer full position in
Condensed print mode is set to 132 columns which is 5 condensed characters less
than that in Normal mode. However, when the right or left margin is set by the
ESC Q or ESC I code, condensed characters are printed up to the specified print
column width in the same manner as in Pica-sized print mode.
For details, refer to "Buffer-Full Print" on page 3-2.
2. If this code is not specified at the head of a line, the print data prior to thi$ code
may be lost.
