Set Intercharacter Space | Printronix P7000 H-Series, PSA3 guide

Set Intercharacter Space

A maximum of 32 horizontal tabs can be set.

The printer does not move the print position to any tabs beyond the right-margin position. However, all tab settings are stored in the printer’s memory; if you move the right margin, you can access previously ignored tabs.

The printer calculates tab positions based on 10 cpi if proportional spacing is selected with the ESC p command.

The default is every eight characters.

Set Intercharacter Space

ASCII Code	ESC SP n
Hex Code	1B 20 n
Dec Code	27 32 n
Purpose	Increases the space between characters; the unit is according
	to the current density.
	Where:
	0 <= n <= 127
Comment	The extra space set with this command doubles during double-
	width mode.

Set Intercharacter Spacing of DBCS Character (Hangul Extension)

ASCII Code	FS S n1 n2
Hex Code	28 53 n1 n2
Dec Code	1C 83 n1 n2
Purpose	Sets intercharacter space to the left and right of the DBCS
	character.
	n1	Specifies the space to the left of the printed character.
	n2	Specifies the space to the right of the printed character.
	The dot size of n1 and n2 is 1/180 inch.
	Where:
	0 < n1 < 127
	0 < n2 < 127
Comment	A DBCS character with a half-width feature set by the FS SI
	command is treated as an SBCS character.

This command also affects an SBCS character if the character is aligned with DBCS by the FS U command.

If the SBCS character is aligned with the DBCS character, the intercharacter space of the SBCS character is half of n1 and n2.

This command affects the front panel setting of “DBCS CPI.” The default is n1 = 0, n2 = 3.
