 [Function]   Setting the right spacing of the character 
 
 [Code]   <1B>H<20>H<n> 
 
 [Range]   0≤n≤255 
 
 [Outline]    [The specification which is common to the model]  
• Sets the right spacing of character to  [n×basic calculation pitch]  inches. 
 
 [Caution]     [The specification which is common to the model]  
• If the horizontal magnification of character is 2 or more, the right spacing increases with the 
magnification. 
• Does not affect Kanji. 
• The right spacing can be set separately for the STANDARD and PAGE MODES. 
• The basic calculation pitch is set by GS P. Once defined, the right spacing is not changed if the basic 
calculation pitch is changed by GS P. 
• Fractions resulting from calculation are corrected with the minimum pitch of the mechanism, and the 
remainder is omitted. 
• In STANDARD MODE, this command uses the horizontal basic calculation pitch (x). 
• In PAGE MODE, the basic calculation pitch used by this command depends on the start point: 
(1) If the start point specified by ESC T is top left or bottom right, the command uses the horizontal basic 
calculation pitch (x). 
(2) If the start point specified by ESC T is top right or bottom left, the command uses the vertical basic 
calculation pitch (y). 
• The maximum right spacing is capable of approximately 31.906 mm (255/203 inches). A setting greater 
than this maximum is trimmed to the maximum.
