Explanation
(1) A relative position of the data expansion starting position in the vertical direction in
page mode is specified with reference to a current position. The next data
expansion starting position is shifted (nL + nH
×
256) dots away from the current
position in the vertical direction.
(2) This command is ignored except when page mode is selected.
(3) In JIS standard characters, “¥” is equivalent to “\”.
(4) A relative position in the vertical direction out of the specified print area is ignored.
(5) A positive number must be specified for the downward direction, and a negative
number for the upward direction.
(6) The number of dots is determined by nH
×
256 + nL.
(7) N dots in the upward (negative) direction are specified by a complement number of
N.
- N dots = 65536 - N
