[Description] Sets the print starting position based on the current position by using the
foundamental motion unit.
• This command sets the distance from the current position to [(n
L + nH )
× 256 ×
foundamental motion unit]
[Notes] • Any setting that exceeds the printable area is ignored.
• When pitch N is specified to the right:
n
L
+ n
H
× 256 = N
When pitch N is specified to the left (the negative direction), use the complement
of 65536.
When pitch N is specified to the left:

+ n
H
× 256 = 65536 - N
• The horizontal and vertical motion unit 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 as follows, depending
on the starting point of the printing area:
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.
