[Function] Specifies the printing starting position as a number of dots (1/203 inch units) from the
head of the line.
The number of dots is divided by 256, with the quotient becoming n2 and the remainder
becoming n1. Accordingly, the printing starting position will be n1 + n2
×
256 dots from
the head of the line.
