[Caution]	• This command only works when it is entered at the beginning
		of a line.
	• The settings of this command have no effect on PAGE MODE,
		but items set in PAGE MODE will be valid even after
		STANDARD MODE resumes.
	• 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.
