[Notes] · The horizontal tab position is stored as a value of [character width × n]
measured from the 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.
·The previously specified horizontal tab positions do not change, even if the
character width changes.
·The character width is memorized for each standard and page mode.
[Default] The default tab positions are at intervals of 8 characters (columns 9, 17, 25...)
for font A (12 × 24).
