Format: ^LHx,y
Parameters:
x = x-axis position(in dots)
Accepted Values: 0 to 7999(200dpi) / 0 to 11998(300dpi)
Initial Value at Power-up:0 or last permanent saved value
y = y-axis position(in dots)
Accepted Values: 0 to 7999(200dpi) / 0 to 11998(300dpi)
Initial Value at Power-up:0 or last permanent saved value
Depending on the printhead used in your printer, use one of the following when figuring the values
for x and y:
8 dots=1 mm(millimeter),200 dots=1 inch.
12 dots=1 mm(millimeter),300 dots=1 inch.
To be compatible with existing printers, this command must come before the first ^FS(Field
