In standard mode, this command is effective only when there is no data in the print

buffer.

This command has no effect in the print modes (emphasized, double-strike, underline,

character size, or white/black reverse printing) for raster bit image.

If the printing area width set by GS L and GS W is less than the minimum width, the

printing area is extended to the minimum width only on the line in question. The
minimum width means 1 dot in normal (n=0, 48) and double-height (n=2, 50), 2 dots in
double-width (n=1, 49) and quadruple (n=3, 51) modes.

Data outside the printing area is read in and discarded on a dot-by-dot basis.

The position at which subsequent characters are to be printed for raster bit image is

specified by HT (Horizontal Tab), ESC $(Set absolute print position), ESC \(Set relative
print position), and GS L (Set left margin). If the position at which subsequent characters
are to be printed is not a multiple of 8, print speed may decline.

The ESC a (Select justification) setting is also effective on raster bit images.

When this command is received during macro definition, the printer ends macro

definition, and begins performing this command. The definition of this command should
be cleared.
