ESC Q Specify right margin
[ASCII] ESC Q n
[Decimal] 27 81 n
[Hexadecimal] 1B 51 n
[Parameters] 1≤n≤255
Left margin < character width * n at time of setting ≤ printable area
[Description]
・
The left margin and the right margin use the left edge of the physically printable area as
the
reference.
・
The right margin position is the right edge of the set column. (Character width * n)
・
The setting is in the range 0 ≤ (character width * n) ≤ x. ettings outside that range are
ignored. However, x is a value dependent on the media.
・
Left margin ≤ print area < right margin
・
The position of the right margin is the character width * n (at the time that the right margin
is set) from the left edge.
The character width when specifying the margin includes the settings for specifying
character spacing, character spacing for full-width characters or half-width characters. In
addition, when pitches of 10 cpi (= 30 dots), 12 cpi (= 25 dots), or 15 cpi (= 20 dots),
reduced characters, or double-width characters are specified, that character width is
considered the unit.
However, increases in the character width due to character styles are not applied.
・
The horizontal printing position is moved to the left margin position.
・
If the right margin setting is not at the beginning of the line, the right margin is set after a
line feed.
The beginning of the line indicates the left margin position for left alignment; for right and
center alignment, it means that no image or character is entered on the line.
・
Even if the character width is changed after the right margin is set, the right margin
position does not change.
・
Any right margin setting that puts the right margin position to the left of the left margin
position is ignored.
・
When setting the right margin, set it at least one column (10 cpi = 30 dots) greater than
the left margin.
(If the character width * n at the time of setting < (left margin + 30 dots), the setting is
ignored.)

・
If the difference in the right margin position and the left margin position is less than one
character, that character is ignored.
