Note: Underlines cannot be printed for 90 degree clockwise rotated characters or for spaces set by the Horizontal Tab, Set Absolute Starting Position, or Set Relative Print Position commands.

Note: In page mode, the 7 x 7 font (40/42/51 characters/line) cannot be used.

Set Absolute Starting Position

Sets the print starting position from the beginning of the line, in the fundamental calculation pitch. The distance (in inches) from the start of the line is calculated as: [(n1 + n2 x 256) x (fundamental calculation pitch)]. See the Set Fundamental Calculation Pitch command (1D 50).
