When this command is used in page mode, the command functions as follows, depending on the starting position of the printable area.

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

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

The maximum paper feed amount is 40 inches. Even if a paper feed amount of more than 40 inches is set, the printer feeds the paper only 40 inches.
