Hex 1B 20 n
Decimal 27 32 n
[Range] 0 ≤ n ≤ 255
[Description] Sets the character spacing for the right side of the character to [ n horizontal or
vertical motion units].
[Details] • The right-side character spacing for double-width mode is twice the normal
value. When characters are enlarged, the right-side character spacing is n
times normal value.
• This command does not affect the setting of kanji characters.
• This command sets values independently in each mode (standard and page
modes).
• The horizontal and vertical motion unit are specified by GS P. Changing the
horizontal or vertical motion unit does not affect the current right-side spacing.
• 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 in page mode,
depending on starting position of the printable area as follows:
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.
• The maximum right-side spacing is 255/180 inches. Any setting exceeding the
maximum is converted to the maximum automatically.
