GS \ nL nH<br />

[Function]<br />

[Code]<br />

Specifying <strong>the</strong> relative vertical position <strong>of</strong> a character in<br />

PAGE MODE<br />

HH<br />

[Range] 0 nL 255<br />

0 nH 255<br />

[Outline]<br />

[Caution]<br />

This command is used in PAGE MODE to specify <strong>the</strong> vertical<br />

position <strong>of</strong> a character in <strong>the</strong> data mapping start position, in a<br />

relative position with respect to <strong>the</strong> current position. The next<br />

data mapping start position will be at a point [(nL + nH × 256)×<br />

basic calculation pitch] inches away from <strong>the</strong> current position.<br />

• This command is ignored when PAGE MODE is not selected.<br />

• If a new position is specified for a character located beneath<br />

<strong>the</strong> current position, it should be specified as positive (+). If it<br />

is above <strong>the</strong> current position, it should be negative (-).<br />

• A negative value is <strong>the</strong> complement <strong>of</strong> 65536. For example, to<br />

move <strong>the</strong> position by N pitches up, specify it as:<br />

nL + nH × 256 = 65536 - N<br />

• The specification <strong>of</strong> a relative position outside <strong>the</strong> specified<br />

print area is ignored.<br />

• Depending on <strong>the</strong> start point specified by ESC T, this command<br />

acts as follows:<br />

(1) If <strong>the</strong> start point is <strong>the</strong> top left or bottom right, <strong>the</strong> command<br />

specifies <strong>the</strong> relative position in <strong>the</strong> paper feed direction<br />

(The character’s top-bottom direction) using <strong>the</strong> vertical<br />

basic calculation pitch (y).<br />

(2) If <strong>the</strong> start point is <strong>the</strong> top right or bottom left, <strong>the</strong> command<br />

specifies <strong>the</strong> relative position in <strong>the</strong> direction perpendicular<br />

to <strong>the</strong> paper feed (The character’s top-bottom direction)<br />

using <strong>the</strong> horizontal basic calculation pitch (x).<br />

• The basic calculation pitch is set by GS P.<br />

• Fractions resulting from calculations are corrected with <strong>the</strong><br />

minimum pitch <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> mechanism, and <strong>the</strong> remainder is<br />

omitted.<br />
