GS \ nL nH

[Name]	Set relative vertical print position in page mode
[Format]	ASCII		GS	\	nL	nH
	Hex		1D	5C	nL	nH
	Decimal		29	92	nL	nH
[Range]	0 ≤	nL ≤	255
	0 ≤	nH ≤	255

[Description] Sets the relative vertical print starting position from the current position in page mode.

	•	This command sets the distance from the current position to [(nL + nH ⋅ 256)
		⋅ vertical or horizontal motion unit].
[Details]	•	This command is ignored unless page mode is selected.

• When pitch N is specified to the movement downward: nL + nH ⋅ 256 = N

When pitch N is specified to the movement upward (the negative direction), use the complement of 65536.

When pitch N is specified to the movement upward: nL + nH ⋅ 256 = 65536 - N

• Any setting that exceeds the specified printing area is ignored.

• This command function as follows, depending on the print starting position set by ESC T:

①When the starting position is set to the upper left or lower right of the printing, the vertical motion unit (y) is used.

②When the starting position is set to the upper right or lower left of the printing area, the horizontal motion unit (x) is used.

•The horizontal and vertical motion unit are specified by GS P.

•The GS P command can change the horizontal (and vertical) motion unit. However, the value cannot be less than the minimum horizontal movement amount, and it must be in even units of the minimum horizontal movement amount.
