Moves the print position right or left aspecified dis-
tance. Ignored if the resulting position is beyond the
right or left margin. The formula for the distance and
direction are as follows:
If n2is between Oand 63, the print head moves right by
(nl +rL2X256)dots.
If you want to move the print head to the left, nl and n2
are obtained by subtracting the value from 65536, and
dividing the result into high and low bytes.
The unit of movement is fixed at 1/120inch in draft
mode and 1/180inch in LQ mode.
