[Description]

Sets the line spacing to n × (vertical or horizontal motion unit).

[Notes]

The maximum line spacing is 1016 mm {40 inches}. However, it may be smaller depending on models.
If the specified amount exceeds the maximum line spacing, the line spacing is automatically set to the maximum.
When Standard mode is selected, the vertical motion unit is used.
when Page mode is selected, the vertical or horizontal motion unit is used for the print direction set by ESC T.
- When the starting position is set to the upper left or lower right of the print area using ESC T, the vertical motion unit is used.
- When the starting position is set to the upper right or lower left of the print area using ESC T, the horizontal motion unit is used.
The line spacing can be set independently in Standard mode and in Page mode.
- In Standard mode this command sets the line spacing of Standard mode.
- in Page mode this command sets the line spacing of page mode.
When the motion unit is changed after the line spacing is set, the line spacing setting does not change.
Selected line spacing is effective until ESC 2 is executed, ESC @ is executed, the printer is reset, or the power is turned off.
