ESC Q Specify right margin

[ASCII] ESC Q n

[Decimal] 27 81 n

[Hexadecimal] 1B 51 n

[Parameters] 1≤n≤255

Left margin < character width * n at time of setting ≤ printable area

[Description]

・

The left margin and the right margin use the left edge of the physically printable area as

the

reference.

・

The right margin position is the right edge of the set column. (Character width * n)

・

The setting is in the range 0 ≤ (character width * n) ≤ x. ettings outside that range are

ignored. However, x is a value dependent on the media.

・

Left margin ≤ print area < right margin

・

The position of the right margin is the character width * n (at the time that the right margin

is set) from the left edge.

The character width when specifying the margin includes the settings for specifying

character spacing, character spacing for full-width characters or half-width characters. In

addition, when pitches of 10 cpi (= 30 dots), 12 cpi (= 25 dots), or 15 cpi (= 20 dots),

reduced characters, or double-width characters are specified, that character width is

considered the unit.

However, increases in the character width due to character styles are not applied.

・

The horizontal printing position is moved to the left margin position.

・

If the right margin setting is not at the beginning of the line, the right margin is set after a

line feed.

The beginning of the line indicates the left margin position for left alignment; for right and

center alignment, it means that no image or character is entered on the line.

・

Even if the character width is changed after the right margin is set, the right margin

position does not change.

・

Any right margin setting that puts the right margin position to the left of the left margin

position is ignored.

・

When setting the right margin, set it at least one column (10 cpi = 30 dots) greater than
the left margin.

(If the character width * n at the time of setting < (left margin + 30 dots), the setting is

ignored.)

・

If the difference in the right margin position and the left margin position is less than one
character, that character is ignored.
