Notes •
For all EPL desktop printers, this command will automatically set the left margin according
to the following rules:
(print head width -label width) / 2
The q value affects the available print width. Minimizing the q value will maximize the print
length and print speed (double buffering).
If the R Command (Reference Point) is sent after this command, the image buffer will be
automatically reformatted to match the width of the print head and is offset by the R
command specified image buffer starting point, nullifying the q command.
