command in BP-I mode.
[37] ESC B n1 n2... [1B,42,n1,n2,...n64,00] H Sets vertical tab positions beginning from n1 and end
n64 NUL [27,66,n1,n2,...n64,0] D with NUL [00]H. n=1 is the second line from TOF.
[38] ESC C n [1B,43,n] H [27,67,n] D Sets page length in line unit (1≤n≤127).
The current print line becomes TOF (top of form).
[39] ESC C NUL n [1B,43,00,n] H [27,67,0,n] D Sets page length in inch unit (1≤n≤22).
The current print line becomes TOF (top of form).

n2...n28 NUL [27,68,n1,n2,...n28,0] D n indicates the number of spaces from the left margin
with the character width at the command execution.
n=1 is at the first character from the left margin.
Tab position changes accordingly with a change of
character width in BP-I mode.
