ESC $ n1 n2

[Function]

Specifying the Absolute Positions

[Code]

<1B>H<24>H<n1><n2>

[Range]

{0 =< n1 =< FF(Hex)}

 

{0 =< n2 =< 1(Hex)}

[Outline]

The printing start position is specified in the number of dots (1/203 inch unit) from

 

the beginning of line.

 

The number of dots is divided by 256, whose quotient is taken as n2 and the residual

 

 

as n1.

 

Therefore, the printing start position is equal to n1 + n2 256 from the beginning of

 

 

line.

[Caution]

Specifying beyond the line end is ignored.

[Default]

The initial value is not specified.
