  • When a character size is set to N times as large as a normal size, both right- and left-side character spacings are also set to N times as large as a normal size.
  • In Standard mode, the horizontal motion unit (perpendicular to the paper feed direction) is used.
  • in Page mode, the horizontal or vertical motion unit differs, depending on the starting position set by ESC T.
    • When the starting position is set to the upper left or lower right, the horizontal motion unit (perpendicular to the paper feed direction) is used.
    • When the starting position is set to the upper right or lower left, the vertical motion unit (paper feed direction) is used.
  • Different character spacing can be set for Standard mode and page mode.
    • When this command is set in Standard mode, character spacing for multilingual (except Thai) characters printed in Standard mode is set.
    • When this command is set in Page mode, character spacing for multilingual (except Thai) characters printed in Page mode is set.
  • If the horizontal or vertical motion unit is changed after setting the character spacing, the spacing between the characters is not changed.
  • The character spacing is effective until ESC @ is executed, the printer is reset, or the power is turned off.
  • This command is used to change spacing between characters.
