I believe it's part of the "set left & right margins" commands, which the
FX-series has, but the older MX (which I used to have) doesn't.  I used to
get a "P", which is the ASCII code for 80 (decimal).  If you want to find out
what's going on, though, try putting your printer in its hex dump mode (if it
has one) and examining the output, or, better yet, use the CMD4 program to
capture printer output to a file, and "type hex" (or "type opt h" for us
old-timers) to see what you have.
