Range 1 < n < 255
This sequence sets up to 28 (IBM mode) or 32 (EPSON mode) horizontal tab stops after canceling
the current setting. The n
1
to n
x
parameters specify the number of columns at which horizontal
tab stops are required and must be entered in the sequence in ascending numerical order. Any
value outside this range will be ignored. In IBM mode, the tab stop position is memorized as
logical position in the page so that it is affected by changing the horizontal spacing. The columns
are numbered 1 through 136. In EPSON mode, the tab stop position set by ESC D is memorized as
physical position in the page and therefore it is not affected by changing the horizontal spacing. The
physical position of the tab stop depends on the horizontal spacing in operation when ESC D is used.
The ESC D 0 cancels all active tab stops.

This command moves the print carriage of a (n

*256))/120 inch displacement on the right of its
current dot position. If the selected position is outside the current right margin, it is forced to the last
column.
