Input Data Format
(60)Specifying the relative position of characters in the vertical direction in the page mode (GS \ n1 n2)
Code: [1D] h + [5C] h + n1 + n2
*(0 ≤ n1 ≤ FF)
(0 ≤ n2 ≤ FF) Data are expressed in Hex code.
This command specifies the position in the characters' vertical direction of the data development start position as the relative position with the current position as the ref- erence, in the Page mode. The next data development start position is the position after shifting from the current position [(n1 + n2 x 256) x basic calculation pitch] inch.
•This command is disregarded except when the Page mode is selected.
•If the downward direction from the current position, with respect to the characters, is specified, the value is a positive number (plus). If the upward direction is speci- fied, the value is a negative number (minus).
•Negative numbers are expressed as a complement of 65,536.
For example, if moving in the upward direction by N pitch, n1 + n2 x 256 = 65536 – N.
•A relative position which exceeds the specified print area is disregarded.
•Operation according to the starting point by ESC T is as follows.
(1)If the starting point is specified as “top left” or “bottom right”, the relative position in the paper feed direction (vertical direction of the characters) is speci- fied. At this time, the vertical basic calculation pitch (y) is used.
(2)If the starting point is specified as “top right” or “bottom left”, the relative position in the direction perpendicular to the paper feed direction (vertical di- rection of the characters) is specified. At this time, the horizontal basic calcu- lation pitch (x) is used.
•The basic calculation pitch is set by GS P.
•If there is a fraction, interpolation is carried out at the mechanism's minimum pitch. Remainders are cut off.
