[Range]	0 ≤ (nL + nH ⋅ 256) ≤ 65535				(0 ≤ nL ≤ 255 , 0 ≤ nH ≤ 255)
[Description]	• Moves the print position to [(nL + nH ⋅ 256) ⋅ (horizontal or vertical motion unit)] from
	the left edge of the print area.

[Description]

• Defines the user-defined character pattern for the specified character codes.

•y specifies the number of bytes in the vertical direction.

•c1 specifies the beginning character code for the definition, and c2 specifies the final code.

•x specifies the number of dots in the horizontal direction from the left edge.

•d specifies the defined data (column format).

[Note]	• User-defined characters and a downloaded bit image (GS ∗) cannot be defined
	simultaneously. When this command is executed, the downloaded bit image is
	deleted.
