[Caution]

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

• When Page mode is selected, this command only executes the internal flagging of the printer.

• The setting of this command does not affect Page mode.

• If the value entered with this command exceeds the printable area for one line, the entire area except the left margin is set as the print area width.

• The basic calculation pitches are defined by GS P. Once defined, the print area width is not changed if the basic calculation pitch is changed by GS P.

• The print area width is calculated with the horizontal basic calculation pitch (x) defined by GS P. A fraction resulting from the calculation is corrected with the minimum pitch of the mechanism, and the remainder is omitted.

• If the first character to be mapped at the beginning of a line has a width (including the right spacing) greater than the print area width, only that line is handled as follows:

(1) The print area is extended toward the right to accommodate the first character, but not wider than the printable area.
