Description: Sets the print starting position to ( nL + nH × 256) × (horizontal or vertical
motion unit) from the beginning of the line.
Notes:
• The printer ignores any setting that exceeds the printing area.

• When page mode is selected, the horizontal or vertical motion unit is
used for the print direction set by ESC T.

printing area using ESC T, the horizontal motion unit is used.
• When the starting position is set to the upper right or lower left of the
printing area using ESC T, the vertical motion unit is used.
• Even if the vertical or horizontal motion unit is changed after changing
the printing position, the setting of the printing position will not be
changed.
• Even if underline mode is turned on, the underline will not be printed
under the space skipped by this command.
