This command enables you to access natural pitches of a font that may
not be specifically supported by an emulation. The command sets
horizontal motion index (HMI) to the currently selected font’s HMI.

The command cancels the double-width print mode, but does not
cancel the oversize-character (scalable characters) command. This
command resets the Epson variable spacing to zero.
