GS L nL nH

[Function]

Setting the left margin

[Code]

<1D>H<4C>H<nL><nH>

[Range]

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

 

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

[Outline]

This command sets the left margin specified by nL and nH. The value of the left

 

margin is [(nL + nH 256) 1/203] inches.

[Caution]

• This command only works when it is entered at the beginning of a line.

 

• The maximum settable left margin is equal to the horizontal printable area. A

 

setting greater than this maximum is trimmed to the maximum.

 

• When mapping character data, if the print area specified is not wide enough to

 

accommodate one character of the current font, only the line for that character

 

data is handled as follows:

 

(1) The print area is extended toward the right to be equivalent to one character of

 

the current font, but not wider than the printable area.

 

(2) If an area for one character cannot be provided as a result of step (1), the print

 

area is extended toward the left. (So, the left margin is decreased.)

 

• When mapping non-character data (Bit image, downloaded bit image, or bar code),

 

if the print area specified is narrower than 9-bits, only the line for that data is handled

 

as follows:

 

(1) The print area is extended toward the left (So, the left margin is decreased)

 

until it is 9-dot wide, but not wider than the printable area.
