GS P x y

[Function]

Specifying the basic calculation pitch

[Code]

<1D>H<50>H<x><y>

[Range]

0 x 255

0 y 255

[Outline]

• This command sets the horizontal basic calculation pitch to approx. 25.4/x mm (1/

x inches), and the vertical basic calculation pitch to approx. 25.4/y mm (1/y inches).

• If x = 0, the horizontal basic calculation pitch is reverted to the default value.

• If y = 0, the vertical basic calculation pitch is reverted to the default value.

[Caution]

• The horizontal direction is defined as the direction perpendicular to the paper feed,

and the vertical direction is defined as the paper feed direction.

• In STANDARD MODE, the following parameters are used regardless of the character

orientation (e.g. inverted or 90°-right-turned).

(1) Commands using x: ESC SP, ESC $, ESC \, FS S, GS L, GS W

(2) Commands using y: ESC 3, ESC J

• In PAGE MODE, the parameters used depend on the character orientation, as follows:

(1) If the start point specified by ESC T is the top left or bottom right (The characters

are mapped in the direction perpendicular to the paper feed):

• Commands using x: ESC SP, ESC $, ESC W, ESC \, FS S

• Commands using y: ESC 3, ESC J, ESC W, GS $, GS \

(2) If the start point specified by ESC T is the top right or bottom left (The characters

are mapped in the paper feed direction):

• Commands using x: ESC 3, ESC J, ESC W, GS $, GS \

• Commands using y: ESC SP, ESC $, ESC W, ESC \, FS S

• This command does not affect any other values that are already set.

• If calculations made in combination with another command generate fractions,

the fractions are corrected with the minimum pitch of the mechanism, and the
remainder is omitted.

[Default]

x = 203, y = 360
