A maximum of 16 tab positions can be specified.
A tab setting that specifies a position extending past the bottom margin is

If n = 0, the vertical tabs are cancelled (default), as when the VFU tab is set to
channel 0.
VT

[Details] Vertical tab position = Line feed amount when this command is specified *
Specified number of lines
If the remaining length of paper is not enough to perform a vertical tab, an FF
operation is performed according to the specified form feed mode.
If VT is received when no vertical tabs are specified, an LF operation is
