Comments:
Sets up to 32 horizontal tabs, which are entered as nl, n2, etc.
(from
1 - 255) with the NUL character or any value less than the previous
one terminating the command. Tab stops are set as absolute positions
determined by the current character pitch, so they do not change if the
character pitch is changed. Settings made in the proportional mode are
treated as pica. Upon initialization, horizontal tab stops are set in
every eighth column. All tabs can be cleared by sending ESC D NUL.
HT code will then be ignored.

Sets the page orientation. The following values can be used for n:
0: Portrait orientation (printed lines of text perpendicular to the
direction of paper travel).
1: Landscape orientation (printed lines of text parallel to
the
direction of paper travel).
If orientation is changed in the middle of a page, all data received to
that point is printed and the sheet is ejected. Portrait- and
landscape-
oriented text cannot be mixed on a page.
