Input Data Format

(10)Setting the space between characters (ESC SP n)

Code: (1B) h + [20] h + n

* (0 n 20) Data are expressed in Hex code.

The space to the right of characters is set in [n x basic calculated pitch] inches.

When the horizontal magnification of characters is 2 or greater, the amount of space on the right becomes larger at the same magnification.

(1)This does not effect Kanji.

The amount of space on the right side of characters can be set independently in the Standard mode and the Page mode.

The basic calculated pitch is set by GS P. Also, after the amount of right space is set, this amount of space does not change even if the basic calculated pitch is changed by GS P.

If there is a fraction, interpolation is carried out at the mechanism's minimum pitch. Remainders are cut off.

In the Standard mode, the basic calculation pitch (x) in the horizontal direction is used.

In the Page mode, the basic calculation pitch used according to the starting point is as follows.

(1)If the starting point is specified as "top left" or "bottom right" by ESC T, the horizontal basic calculation pitch (x) is used.

(2)If the starting point is specified as "top right" or "bottom left" by ESC T, the vertical basic calculation pitch (y) is used.

The maximum value that can be set for the amount of right space is 255/203 inch. Settings which exceed this maximum value are rounded to the maximum value.

The minimum value is “n = 0”.
