[Notes ]

The horizontal tab position is stored as a value of [character width × beginning of

the line. The character width includes the right-side character spacing, and

double-width characters are set with twice the width of normal characters. This

command cancels the previous horizontal tab settings. When setting n =8,the

print position is moved to column 9 by sending HT. Up to 32 tab positions (k =

32) can be set. Data exceeding 32 tab positions is processed as normal data.

Transmit [n ]k in ascending order and place a NUL code 0 at the end. When [n ]k

is less than or equal to the preceding value [n ]k -1,tab setting is finished and the

following data is processed as normal data. ESC D NUL cancels all horizontal

tab positions. When [n ]k exceeds the number of characters printable on one

line, the tab position set is equal to the maximum printable column plus 1. The

previously specified horizontal tab positions do not change, even if the character

width

changes.

[Default ]

The default tab positions are at intervals of 8 characters (columns 9,17,25,…)for

the font A (12 ×24)
