[Description] Sets horizontal tab positions.

 

n specifies the column number for setting a horizontal tab position from the beginning of the

 

line.

 

k indicates the total number of horizontal tab positions to be set.

[Details]

The horizontal tab position is stored as a value of [character width n] measured from the

 

beginning of the line. The character width includes the right-side character spacing, and

 

double-width characters are set with twice the width of normal characters.

 

This command cancels the previous horizontal tab settings.

 

When setting n = 8, the print position is moved to column 9 by sending HT.

 

Up to 32 tab positions (k = 32) can be set. Data exceeding 32 tab positions is processed as

 

normal data.

 

Transmit [n]k in ascending order and place a NUL code 0 at the end.

 

When [n]k is less than or equal to the preceding value [n]k-1, tab setting is finished and the

 

following data is processed as normal data.

 

ESC D NUL cancels all horizontal tab positions.

 

The previously specified horizontal tab positions do not change, even if the character width

 

changes.

 

The character width is memorized for each standard and page mode.

[Default]

The default tab positions are at intervals of 8 characters (columns 9, 17, 25,...) for font A (12

 

24).
