[Name] Set absolute horizontal print position [Operation]
[Format] 1BH, 28H, 24H, nL, nH, m1, m2, m3, m4
[Range of Definition] nL = 04H, nH = 00H (number of bytes to follow)
0 <= m <= 47616
[Function] 1) The printing position in the positive X direction is set to:
The maximum Absolute Horizontal Position (AHP) is 209.973mm or (29760/3600 =) 8.267
inches.
Position Count (c) is given by:
c = m4*256*256*256 + m3*256*256 + m2*256 + m1

from the origin (the left margin position) on the X axis of the position management coordinate
system.
2) If the Absolute Horizontal Position specified is passed the right margin position, then this
command is ignored.
