Comments:
Determines the position (relative to the current position) at which printing of following data will start. To find n1 and n2, first calculate the displacement required in 1/120ths of an inch. Send the resulting number using this formula: total number of dots = n1 + ( n2 x 256). If the displacement is to the left, subtract the number from 65536 before you use the formula. The command is ignored if it would move the print position outside the current margins. This command applies to both draft and NLQ.
