[Description] Moves the print position to (

nH
× 256) × (horizontal or vertical motion unit) from the current position.
[Notes] ■The printer ignores any setting that exceeds the print area.
■A positive number specifies movement to the right, and a negative number specifies movement to the left.
N pitch movement to the right: (
nL
+
nH
× 256) = N. Use the complement of N for setting N pitch
movement to the left: (
nL

nH
× 256) = 65536 – N.
■When standard mode is selected, the horizontal motion unit is used.
■When page mode is selected, the horizontal or vertical motion unit is used for the print direction set by
ESC T.
• When the starting position is set to the upper left or lower right of the print area using ESC T, the
horizontal motion unit is used.
• When the starting position is set to the upper right or lower left of the print area using ESC T, the
vertical motion unit is used.
■Even if the vertical or horizontal motion unit is changed after changing the print position, the setting of
the print position will not be changed.
■When underline mode is turned on, the underline will not be printed under the space skipped by this
command.
■“\” corresponds to “\” in the JIS code system.
