[Function] Setting the left margin
[Code] <1D>H<4C>H<nL><nH>
[Range] 0≤nL≤255, 0≤nH≤255
[Outline] [The specification which is commontothemodel]
•Thiscommandsets theleft margin specifiedbynL andnH.
•The value ofthe left margin is [(nL+nH×256)×basic calculation pitch] inches.
Printable area
Left margin Print area width
[Caution] [The specification which is commontothemodel]
•Thiscommandonlyworks whenit isentered atthe beginning of aline.
•When PAGE MODEisselected, thiscommandonlyexecutesthe internal flagging ofthe printer.
•The setting of thiscommanddoes not affect PAGE MODE.
•The maximum settable leftmarginisequal tothe horizontal printable area. Asetting greater thanthis
maximum is trimmed tothe maximum.
•The basiccalculation pitchisdefined byGS P.Once defined, the left margin isnot changedif thebasic
calculationpitchischanged byGS P.
•Theleftmarginiscalculatedwiththehorizontalbasiccalculationpitch(x)setbyGSP.Afractionresulting from
the calculation is corrected with the minimumpitch of themechanism, andtheremainder isomitted.
•When you progressthe firstcharacter in start ofthe line, if theprint area specifiedis notwide enough to
accommodate thewide of onecharacter(*Right space iscontained.),onlythe lineforthat character data is
handled as follows:
(1)The print area isextendedtoward the right tobe equivalent toonecharacter ofthe current font, but not
widerthan theprintable area.
(2)Ifan area forone character cannot beprovidedasa result ofstep (1),theprint area isextendedtoward
the left. (So,theleft margin isdecreased.)
•Whenmappingnon-character data(bitimage, downloadedbitimage,orbarcode), iftheprintarea specified
isnarrower than9-bits,onlythe line forthat data is handledasfollows:
(1) The print area isextendedtoward the left(so, theleft margin isdecreased) until it is9-dot wide, butnot
widerthan theprintable area.
