n2
Comments:
Specifies the position (relative to the current position) at which
subsequent data will print. To find nl and n2, first calculate the
displacement required in units of the minimum increment specified by
ESC q. The displacement must be from 0 - 16383. If the displacement is
to the left, subtract it from 65536. Send the resulting number using this
formula: total units = nl + (n2 x 256). If you specify a position past the
right margin, this command will wrap to the next line if DIP switch l-6
is ON. Otherwise, information that would print past the right margin
will be ignored.

Comments:
Advances the print position horizontally to the next horizontal tab
stop. The default settings are at intervals of eight characters in the
default pitch. The command is ignored if there is no horizontal tab stop
to the right of the current print position. Horizontal tab stops are set
with ESC D. When used with automatic underlining, the area skipped
is not underlined.
