format. 
The data to be printed is always transferred in the format (counter) + (data). 
If 0 
 counter 
 127, then the data following the counter is non-compressed data, and 
the length of the compressed data is (counter)+1 bytes. 
If 128 
 counter 
 255, then the data following the counter is one byte of 
compressed data, and the compressed data is to be considered as being repeated 
257-(counter) times.

The printing position in the X direction is set to a position spaced in the positive 
direction from the present printing position in the X direction by (256 x nH + nL) 
x h/3600 inches. 
If this command specifies a position in the non-printable area (right margin), the 
right margin position is set once again to the X direction print position.
