ESC M Specify elite pitch

[ASCII] ESC M

[Decimal] 27 77

[Hexadecimal] 1B 4D

[Parameters] None

[Description]

・

Prints subsequent data with elite pitch (12 characters/inch).

・

Character width is 25 dots (=300 dots/12 characters).

・

If the character width is 25 dots or less, the character spacing is set to 25 minus the
character width.

・

If the character width exceeds 25 dots, character spacing is set to character width.

(Character spacing is 0 dot.)

In this case, the pitch does not exactly equal the pica pitch.

・

With double-width characters, the character spacing is doubled (50 dots).

・

With half-width characters, the character spacing is reduced to 13 dots.

・

When the character spacing is changed with ESC SP, the setting is updated.

・

This command is invalid when proportional pitch is selected.

・

In out-line fonts, the space between character is 0 dot.
