ESC SP n

[Function]

Setting the right spacing of the character

[Code]

<1B>H<20>H<n>

 

[Range]

0

n

255

 

[Outline]

Sets the right spacing of character to [n basic calculation pitch] inches.

[Caution]

If the horizontal magnification of character is 2 or more, the right spacing increases

 

 

with the magnification.

 

Does not affect Kanji.

 

The right spacing can be set separately for the STANDARD and PAGE MODES.

 

The basic calculation pitch is set by GS P. Once defined, the right spacing is not

 

 

changed if the basic calculation pitch is changed by GS P.

 

Fractions resulting from calculation are corrected with the minimum pitch of the

 

 

mechanism, and the remainder is omitted.

 

In STANDARD MODE, this command uses the horizontal basic calculation pitch (x).

 

In PAGE MODE, the basic calculation pitch used by this command depends on the

 

 

start point:

 

 

 

(1) If the start point specified by ESC T is top left or bottom right, the command

 

 

 

uses the horizontal basic calculation pitch (x).

 

 

(2) If the start point specified by ESC T is top right or bottom left, the command

 

 

 

uses the vertical basic calculation pitch (y).

 

• The maximum right spacing is capable of approximately 31.906 mm (255/203

 

 

inches). A setting greater than this maximum is trimmed to the maximum.

[Default]

n = 0
