[Description] Sets left- and right-side Kanji character spacing n1 and n2, respectively.

	• When the printer model used supports GS P, the left-side character spacing is [n1 ⋅
	horizontal or vertical motion units], and the right-side character spacing is [n2 ⋅ horizontal or
	vertical motion units].
[Notes]	• When double-width mode is set, the left- and right-side character spacing is twice the normal
	value.
	• The horizontal and vertical motion units are set by GS P. The previously specified character
	spacing does not change, even if the horizontal or vertical motion unit is changed using GS P.
	• The value cannot be less than the minimum horizontal movement amount, and must be in
	even units of the minimum horizontal movement amount.
	• In standard mode, the horizontal motion unit is used.
	• In page mode, the horizontal or vertical motion unit differs in page mode, depending on
	starting position of the printable area as follows:

①When the starting position is set to the upper left or lower right of the printable area using ESC T, the horizontal motion unit (x) is used.

②When the starting position is set to the upper right or lower left of the printable area using ESC T, the vertical motion unit (y) is used.

③The maximum right-side spacing is 255/180 inches for the paper roll and is approximately 35.983 mm {255/150 inches}. Any setting exceeding the maximum is converted to the maximum automatically.

[Default] n1 = 0, n2 = 0 [Reference] GS P
