This command is only effective when processed at the beginning of the line in page
mode.
This command does not affect printing in page mode.
If the [left margin + printing area width] exceeds the printable area, [printable area
width - left margin) is used.
The horizontal and vertical motion units are specified by GS P. Changing the
horizontal and vertical motion units does not affect the current left margin and print
area width.
The horizontal motion unit (x) is used for calculating the printing area width.

Sets the absolute vertical print starting position from the current position in page mode.
This command sets the distance from the current position to [(nL + nH × 256) × vertical
or horizontal motion unit] inches.
This command is ignored unless page mode is selected.
When pitch N is specified to the movement downward:
nL + nH × 256 = N
When pitch N is specified to the movement upward (the negative direction).
nL + nH × 256 = 65536 – N
Any setting that exceeds the specified printing area is ignored.
This command function as follows specify motion unit, depending on the print starting
position set by ESC T:
- When the starting position is set to the upper left or lower right of the printing, the
vertical motion unit (y) is used.
- When the starting position is set to the upper right or lower left of the printing
area, the horizontal motion unit (x) is used.
The horizontal and vertical motion units are specified by GS P.
