[Name]	Set horizontal tab positions
[Format]	ASCII		ESC	D	n1...nk	NUL
	Hex		1B	44	n1...nk	00

[Range]	1 ≤	n ≤	255

[Description] Sets horizontal tab positions.

	• n specifies the column number for setting a horizontal tab position from the beginning of the
	line.
	• k indicates the total number of horizontal tab positions to be set.
[Details]	• The horizontal tab position is stored as a value of [character width ⋅ n] measured from the
	beginning of the line. The character width includes the right-side character spacing, and
	double-width characters are set with twice the width of normal characters.
	• This command cancels the previous horizontal tab settings.
	• When setting n = 8, the print position is moved to column 9 by sending HT.
	• Up to 32 tab positions (k = 32) can be set. Data exceeding 32 tab positions is processed as
	normal data.
	• Transmit [n]k in ascending order and place a NUL code 0 at the end.
	• When [n]k is less than or equal to the preceding value [n]k-1, tab setting is finished and the
	following data is processed as normal data.
	• ESC D NUL cancels all horizontal tab positions.
	• The previously specified horizontal tab positions do not change, even if the character width
	changes.
	• The character width is memorized for each standard and page mode.
[Default]	The default tab positions are at intervals of 8 characters (columns 9, 17, 25,...) for font A (12 ⋅
	24).
