Horizontal Spacing
Set character spacing .............. ESC P 1B 50 27 80 This sequence sets character spacing and character cell size
to 10 or 17.1 CPI to 10 characters per inch. If condensed printing is on, this
sequence sets character spacing and character cell size to 17.1
chracters per inch.
)Note: This sequence is not supported when the IBM XL24
emulation is active.
Set character spacing .............. ESC M 1B 4D 27 77 These sequences set character spacing and character cell
to 12 CPI ESC : 1B 3A 27 58 size to 12 characters per inch.
Set character spacing .............. ESC g 1B 67 27 103 This sequence sets character spacing and character cell size
to 15 CPI to 15 characters per inch. Condensed printing does not affect the
function of this sequence.
Start condensed printing .......... ESC SI 1B 0F 27 15 This sequence starts condensed printing, wherein character
spacing and character cell size are 17.1 characters per inch. A
DC2 code ends condensed printing.
Set character cell size .............. ESC ESC Z n 1B 1B 5A n 27 27 90 n This sequence sets the character cell size so that characters
5 characters/inch ........ ESC ESC Z 8 1B 1B 5A 38 27 27 90 56 are the correct size for the spacing. The value of variable n
6 characters/inch ........ ESC ESC Z 4 1B 1B 5A 34 27 27 90 52 minus 32 defines a number of 1/120-inch increments to
6.6 characters/inch ........ ESC ESC Z 2 1B 1B 5A 32 27 27 90 50 move:
7.5 characters/inch ........ ESC ESC Z 0 1B 1B 5A 30 27 27 90 48
8.5 characters/inch ........ ESC ESC Z . 1B 1B 5A 2E 27 27 90 46 Character spacing = (n - 32) x 1/120-inch
10 characters/inch ........ ESC ESC Z , 1B 1B 5A 2C 27 27 90 44

20 characters/inch ........ ESC ESC Z & 1B 1B 5A 26 27 27 90 38
Set intercharacter space ......... ESC SP n 1B 20 n 27 32 n This sequence sets the amount of space for the printer to add to
the right of each character in addition to the space already
allowed in the design of the character. The value of variable n
defines the number of units to add. The unit size depends on the
current emulation and print quality. If the emulation is Epson JX,
the unit size is always 1/120 inch, regardless of the print quality.
In all other emulations, the unit size is 1/180 inch in letter- and
memo-quality and 1/120 inch in draft-quality.
For example, to add 1/4 inch to the right of each character
while in Epson LQ-2550 emulation and letter-quality, variable n
would be 45 decimal (1/4 inch = 45 x 1/180 inch).
