ESC B Set Dot Tab

DESCRIPTION

Provided for LabelWriter EL compatibility. ESC B defines the

left-hand starting position for the placement of EL mode bitmap

data. ESC B is used in conjunction with the SYN (EL Mode

Graphics) and ETB (EL Mode Compressed Graphics) commands.

The LabelWriter SE300 prints up to 56 bytes (448 dots) of bitmap

data. ESC B allows the starting point (the left margin) to be

relocated from the default position (byte 0), which is the extreme

left side of the label, to any point, up to the right-hand margin

(byte 56). The increments for relocating the starting point are in

millimeters. Use of this command, along with the ESC D

command, can drastically reduce the number of data bytes

required to skip blank areas.
