Set Horizontal and Vertical Minimum Motion Units
Sets the horizontal and vertical motion units to 1/x inch and 1/y inch respectively.
Hexadecimal Decimal ASCII Value of x (Horizontal) Value of y (Vertical)
1D 50 x y 29 80 x y GS P x y
0-255
Default = 150
0-255
Default = 300
When x or y is set to 0, the default setting for that motion unit is used.
Notes
The default horizontal motion is x = 150. Before this command was implemented on the
7193, the default horizontal motion unit was also x = 150, except for graphics. The default
for graphics was x = 1/300 inch when using the Set Absolute Starting Postion command
(1B 24) and Set Relative Starting Position command (1B 5C). The purpose of this was to
emulate the Epson LQ-950.
These two commands remain unchanged for existing applications, but their operation is
affected if the Set Horizontal and Vertical Minimum Motion Units command is used.
Likewise, before this command was implemented, the default vertical motion unit was y =
360, to emulate the Epson TM-T80. That emulation was used for the Set Line Spacing to n
Minimum Units command (1B 33) and Print and Feed n Minimum Units command (1B
4A). These two commands remain unchanged for existing applications, but their operation
is affected if the Set Horizontal and Vertical Minimum Motion Units command is used.
