1} Data is described in Hex code.
The printing start position is specified in the number of dots from the beginning of line.
l The number of dots is divided by 256, whose quotient is taken as n2 and the residual as n1.
Therefore, the printing start position is equal to n1 + n2 x 256 from the beginning of line..
l Specifying beyond the line end is ignored.

l The printing start position is specified in the number of dots from the current position.
l Rightward direction is taken as plus and leftward direction as minus.
l To specify N dot in minus (left) direction, use a complement of N for assignment.
- N dots = 65536 - N
l The number of dots is divided by 256, whose quotient is taken as n2 and the residual as n1.
l Specifying exceeding the end of line is ignored.
