Set right margin ................ ESC 0 1B 30 27 48 This sequence sets the right margin at the current print
position for use by the automatic center and justify modes.
The right margin setting is a soft margin that does not affect
normal printing or cause automatic line wrapping. The right
margin is a function of character spacing. Therefore, when
character spacing changes, the right margin remains
at the same print position, but not at the same place on
the page.
Set top margin ................... ESC T 1B 54 27 84 This sequence sets the top margin at the current line
position. The printer advances each new page to this
position before printing begins. It is possible to access the
area above the top margin using absolute moves or reverse
line feeds. The top margin clears when the printer receives
a Clear Top and Bottom Margins sequence, Set Lines Per
Page sequence, or the operator sets a new page length from
the control panel. The physical location of the top margin
on the page is unaffected by subsequent changes to line
spacing.
Set bottom margin ............. ESC L 1B 4C 27 76 This sequence sets the bottom margin at the current line
position. After printing on this line, the printer feeds a new
sheet; no printing can occur below the bottom margin. The
bottom margin clears when the printer receives a Clear Top
and Bottom Margins sequence, Set Lines Per Page
sequence, or the operator sets a new page length from the
control panel. The physical location of the bottom margin
on the page is unaffected by subsequent changes to line
spacing.
Clear top/bottom margins ESC C 1B 43 27 67 This sequence clears the top and bottom margin settings so
that printing can occur on any line on the page.
Clear all tab stops ............. ESC 2 1B 32 27 50 This sequence clears all previously set horizontal and
vertical tab stops.
Set single horizontal tab .... ESC 1 1B 31 27 49 This sequence sets a horizontal tab stop at the current print
stop position. Tab stops can be set at any of the first 159 print
positions on a line. Horizontal tab stops are a function of
the current character spacing. Therefore, when character
spacing changes, horizontal tabs remain at the same print
positions, but not at the same places on the page. If the
factory defaults are in effect, horizontal tab stops are set
every eight print positions across the page.
Clear single horizontal ...... ESC 8 1B 38 27 56 This sequence clears the horizontal tab stop at the current
tab stop print position.
