[Description] Sets the horizontal and vertical motion units to approximately 25.4/x mm { 1/x inches} and approximately 25.4/y mm {1/y inches}, respectively.

 

When x and y are set to 0, the default setting of each value is used.

[Details]

The horizontal direction is perpendicular to the paper feed direction and the vertical direction

 

is the paper feed direction.

 

In standard mode, the following commands use x or y, regardless of character rotation

 

(upside-down or 90° clockwise rotation):

 

Commands using x: ESC SP, ESC $, ESC \, FS S, GS L, GS W

 

Commands using y: ESC 3, ESC J, GS V

 

In page mode, the following command use x or y, depending on character orientation:

 

When the print starting position is set to the upper left or lower right of the printing area

 

using ESC T (data is buffered in the direction perpendicular to the paper feed direction):

 

Commands using x: ESC SP, ESC $, ESC W, ESC \, FS S

 

Commands using y: ESC 3, ESC J, ESC W, GS $, GS \, GS V

 

When the print starting position is set to the upper right or lower left of the printing area

 

using ESC T (data is buffered in the paper feed direction):

 

Commands using x: ESC 3, ESC J, ESC W, GS $, GS \

 

Commands using y: ESC SP, ESC $, ESC W, ESC \, FS S, GS V

 

The command does not affect the previously specified values.

 

The calculated result from combining this command with others is truncated to the minimum

 

value of the mechanical pitch.

[Default]

x = 180, y = 360
