Function:

-The printing position in the X direction is set to a position spaced in the positive direction from the origin on the X axis (left margin position) in the position management coordinate system by (m4 x 256 x 256 x 256 + m3 x 256 x 256 + m2 x 256 + m1) x (absolute horizontal position setting unit) inches. The default value of absolute horizontal position set unit is 1/60 inch unit.

-If the left margin position + ( m4 x 256 x 256 x256 + m3 x 256 x 256 + m2 x 256 + m1) x (absolute horizontal position set unit) is higher than the right margin position, this command is ignored.

-This Command is effective only at the time of the graphic mode.
