When pitch N is specified to the movement upward:
nL + nH × 256 = 65536 - N
• Any setting that exceeds the specified printing area is ignored.
• This command function as follows, depending on the print starting position set by ESC T:
When the starting position is set to the upper left or lower right of the printing, the
vertical
motion unit (y) is used.
When the starting position is set to the upper right or lower left of the printing area, the
horizontal motion unit (x) is used.
• The horizontal and vertical motion unit are specified by GS P.

[Description] Executes a macro.
· r specifies the number of times to execute the macro.
· t specifies the waiting time for executing the macro.
· m specifies macro executing mode.
When the LSB of m = 0:
The macro executes r times continuously at the interval specified by t.
When the LSB of m = 1:
After waiting for the period specified by t, the PAPER OUT LED indicators
blink and the printer waits for the FEED button to be pressed. After the
button is pressed, the printer executes the macro once. The printer
repeats the operation r times.
[Details] · The waiting time is t ´ 100 ms for every macro execution.
· If this command is received while a macro is being defined, the macro definition
is aborted and the definition is cleared.
· If the macro is not defined or if r is 0, nothing is executed.
· When the macro is executed (m = 1), paper always cannot be fed by using the
FEED button.
