The MSB of the parameter is masked.
If n = 0, the expansion specified in the setup mode is selected.
Enlarged character cell expansion takes priority over height expansion. If
the height expansion exceeds the cell expansion when enlarged character
data is input, the characters are enlarged to the cell expansion.
The default setting is the expansion specified in the setup mode.

The HMI indicates the horizontal distance between two adjacent
characters, i.e., the width the print head moves after printing one
character.
The HMI is (n1 + n2 x 256)/180”.
The high-order four bits of parameter n2 (bit 7 to bit 4) are ignored. The
HMI can be set to zero.
After specifed command have priority over DC4 DC4 p or DC4 DC4 i.
If the PITCH LOCK option is set to YES in the setup mode, this
command is ignored.
The default setting is “10 cpi x width expansion”.
