[Function] Specifying the relative vertical position of a character in Page mode
[Code] <1D>H<5C>H<nL><nH>
[Range] 0 ≤ nL ≤ 255
0 ≤ nH ≤ 255
[Outline] This command is used in Page mode to specify the vertical position of a character at the data
mapping start position, in terms of a relative position with respect to the current position.
The next data mapping start position will be at a distance of [(nL + nH × 256)×basic
calculation pitch] inches away from the current position.
[Caution] • This command is ignored when Page mode is not selected.
• The new position to be specified for the character of interest will be positive ("+") if it is
under the current position. It will be negative ("-") if it is above the current position.
• A negative value is the complement of 65536. For example, to move the position by N
pitches up, specify it as:
nL + nH×256 = 65536 - N
• The specification of a relative position outside the specified print area is ignored.
• Depending on the start point specified by ESC T, this command acts as follows:
(1) If the start point is the top left or bottom right, the command specifies the relative
position in the paper feed direction (the character's top-bottom direction) using the
vertical basic calculation pitch (y).
(2) If the start point is the top right or bottom left, the command specifies the relative
position in the direction perpendicular to the paper feed (the character's top-bottom
direction) using the horizontal basic calculation pitch (x).
• The basic calculation pitch is set by GS P.
• Fractions resulting from calculations are corrected with the minimum pitch of the mechanism,
and the remainder is omitted.
