ESC $ nL nH
[Name] Set absolute print position
[Format] ASCII ESC $ n
L nH
Hex 1B 24 nL nH
Decimal 27 36 nL nH
[Range] 0≤nL≤255
0≤nH≤255
[Description] Sets the distance from the beginning of the line to the position at which subsequent characters
are to be printed.
[Details] ·The distance from the beginning of the line to the print position is
[(n
L + nH x 256) x (vertical or horizontal motion unit)] inches.
·Settings outside the specified printable area are ignored.
·The horizontal and vertical motion units are specified by “GS P”.
·The GS P command can change the horizontal (and vertical) motion unit.
However, the value cannot be less than the minimum horizontal movement amount, and it
must be in even units of the minimum horizontal movement amount. In standard mode, the
horizontal motion unit is used.
·In page mode, the horizontal or vertical motion unit differs depending on the starting position of
the printable area as follows :
1. When the starting position is set to the upper left or lower right of the printable area using
ESC T, the horizontal motion unit (x) is used.
2. When the starting position is set to the upper right or lower left of the printable area using
ESC T, the vertical motion unit (y) is used.

ESC % n
[Name] Select/cancel user-defined character set
[Format] ASCII ESC % n
Hex 1B 25 n
Decimal 27 37 n
[Range] 0≤n ≤255
[Description] Selects or cancels the user-defined character set
·When the LSB of n is 0, the user-defined character set is canceled.
·When the LSB of n is 1, the user-defined character set is selected.
[Details] ·When the user-defined character set is canceled, the internal character
set is automatically selected.
·n is available only for the least significant bit.
[Default] n = 0
