[Details] • This command is effective only processed at the beginning of the line.
• In page mode, the printer performs only internal flag operations.
• This command does not affect printing in page mode.
• If the [left margin + printing area width] exceeds the printable area, [printable area width - left
margin) is used.
• The horizontal and vertical motion units are specified by GS P. Changing the horizontal and
vertical motion units does not affect the current left margin.
• The horizontal motion unit (x) is used for calculating the printing area width. The calculated
result is truncated to the minimum value of the mechanical pitch.
