Set right-side character spacing
ASCII ESC SP n
Hexadecimal 1B 20 n
Decimal
27 32 n
Range of n: 0 – 32 (decimal)
Default: 0
Sets the right side character spacing to [ n x horizontal or
vertical motion units]. Values for this command are set
independently in standard and paper mode.
The units of horizontal and vertical motion are specified
by the set horizontal and vertical minimum motion units
(1D 50 …) command. Changes in the horizontal or vertical
units do not affect the current right side character spacing.
When the horizontal or vertical motion unit is changed by
the set horizontal and vertical minimum motion units (1D
50 …) command the value must be in even units and not
less than the minimum amount of horizontal movement.
In standard mode the horizontal motion unit is used.
In page mode the horizontal or vertical motion unit differs
and depends on the starting position of the printable
area. When the starting printing position is the upper left
or lower right of the printable area (set by select print
direction in page mode, 1B 54 n) the horizontal motion
unit (x) is used. When the starting printing position is the
upper right or lower left of the printable area (set by select
print direction in page mode, 1B 54 n) the vertical motion
unit (y) is used.
Exception
This is ignored in A756 emulation mode and is only valid
on the receipt station.
