“ESC ( R” is an ESC/P2 command to enter the EPSON REMOTE Mode. While in this mode, no ESC/P or ESP/P 2 commands will be recognized by the printer until the “ESC 00H” command is invoked to exit Remote Mode. See the Remote mode section for more information.

ESC (/, ESC($ (Set horizontal position command) is recommended to shift to left margin. (To standardize specification: Command to shift left margin has no CR command.)
