Description
1B 10 40 pN
Set Multiple Print Positions
a1 a2 p1 p2
Moves the print position to the right or left, as an
p3 p4
absolute or relative print position.
pN=0 to 127
a1=0 (absolute print position)
a1=1 (relative print position)
a2=0 (move to the left (backward))
a2=1 (move to the right (forward))
The character pitch determines the distance
represented by the tab (distance from the center of
one dot to the center of the next dot).
Pitch
10 cpi
12 cpi
15 cpi
17.1 cpi
20 cpi
The values for p1, p2, p3 and p4 must be entered as
four-digit ASCII numbers (use leading zeros if
necessary), separated by commas, and in
ascending order.
To calculate the value, multiply the position for
which you want to set a tab by the pitch increment
of shift, and then subtract one from the product.
For example, to set a tab for 2" from the left margin
using 12 cpi pitch, multiply 2 by 144, and then
subtract 1. The value would be 0287.
Maximum values are as follows:
Pitch
10 cpi
12 cpi
15 cpi
17.1 cpi
20 cpi

See the command ESC ETX ... CR on page 86 for
instructions on calculating the value for n1...n4.
(Use the same pitch increment of shift values as the
ESC ETX ... CR command.)
