This command is valid only when input at the head of a line.

When Page mode is selected, if this command is input, the printer's internal flag operation only is executed.

Setting of this command has no influence on the Page mode.

The maximum settable left margin is the same as the area in the horizontal direc- tion that can be printed. Settings that exceed the maximum value are rounded to the maximum value.

The basic calculation pitch is set by GS P. Also, once the left margin is set, it will not change even if the basic calculation pitch is changed by GS P.

The horizontal basic calculation pitch (x) in GS P is used in calculating the left margin. Also, if there is a fraction, interpolation is carried out at the mechanism's minimum pitch. Remainders are cut off.

The left margin is set for the set sheet selected as valid by ESC c 1.

The left margin can be set independently for the receipt and journal printers, but if printing of the same data in the receipt and journal printers is specified, the left margin set in the journal printer is disregarded and that set in the receipt printer is enabled.

• The initial values are “n1 = 0” and “n2 = 2”.
