n Function
0, 48
Turns off 90° clockwise rotation mode
1, 49
Turns on 90° clockwise rotation mode
[Details] · This command affects printing in standard mode. However, the setting is
always effective.
· When underline mode is turned on, the printer does not underline 90°
clockwise-rotated.
· Double-width and double-height commands in 90° rotation mode enlarge
characters in the opposite directions from double-height and double- width
commands in normal mode.
[Default] n = 0

[Description] · The horizontal starting position, vertical starting position, printing area width,
and printing area height are defined as x0, y0, dx (inch), dy (inch), respectively.
Each setting for the printing area is calculated as follows:
x0 = [( xL + xH ´ 256) ´ (horizontal motion unit)]
y0 = [( yL + yH ´ 256) ´ (vertical motion unit)]
dx = [ dxL + dxH ´ 256] ´ (horizontal motion unit)]
dy = [ dyL + dyH ´ 256] ´ (vertical motion unit)]
The printing area is set as shown in the figure below.
[Details] · If this command is input in standard mode, the printer executes only internal
flag operation. This command does not affect printing in standard mode.
· If the horizontal or vertical starting position is set outside the printable area, the
printer stops command processing and processes the following data as normal
data.
· If the printing area width or height is set to 0, the printer stops command
processing and processes the following data as normal data.
· This command sets the position where data is buffered to the position specified
by ESC T within the printing area.
· If (horizontal starting position + printing area width) exceeds the printable area,
the printing area width is automatically set to (horizontal printable area -
horizontal starting position).
· If (vertical starting position + printing area height) exceeds the printable area,
the printing area height is automatically set to (vertical printable area - vertical
starting position).
