Description
 Moves the horizontal print position to the nearest horizontal tab position to the right of the input position.
 If there is no horizontal tab position to the right of the input position, or if the next horizontal tab position is
beyond the right margin, the HT command is ignored.
 If underlining is specified, the space between the current position and the next horizontal tab position is not
underlined.
 When the printer is turned on, a horizontal tab position is specified every 8 columns at 10 cpi.
Even if the character width is changed before the horizontal tab positions have been specified, the
horizontal tab positions do not change.
 This command is available only with left alignment.
