[Function]
Sets the vertical tab to the (current form feed amount x n) position.
All other vertical tabs set before setting the vertical tab using this command are cancelled.
A maximum of 16 vertical tabs can be set. However, the tab position must satisfy the condition of 1 ≤
n1 ≤ n2 ... ≤ nk.
When receiving such an illegal code, tabs up to the illegal code are set, but those after the illegal
code are discarded up to the NUL code so illegal code tab are not set.
The vertical tab set using this command is unaffected by changing the form feed amount later.
Vertical tabs set using the ESC B NUL command are cleared.
There is no initial value for the vertical tab.
