[Notes] • The horizontal tab position is stored as a value of [character

width x n] measured from the beginning of the line. The char-

acter width includes the right-side character spacing and

double-width characters are set with twice the width of normal

characters.

• This command cancels previous tab settings.

• When setting n = 8, the print position is moved to column 9,

by sending HT.

• Up to 32 tab positions can be set. Data exceeding 32 tab

positions is processed as normal data.

• Send [ n ] k in ascending order and place a 0 NUL code at

the end. When [ n ] k is less than or equal to the preceding

value [ n ] k-1, the setting is complete and the data which

follows is processed as normal data.

• ESC D NUL cancels all horizontal tab positions.

• The previously specified horizontal tab position does not

change, even if the character width is modified.

[Default] Default tab positions are set at intervals of 8 characters (col-

umns 9, 17, 25, …) when the right-side character spacing is
