Setting the margins does not work

[carbon-steel]

Hi, I'm trying to have my text not be so close to the edges of my receipt, but it does not seem to be working. Here is the code I am running

const escpos = require('escpos');
 
const device  = new escpos.USB();

const printer = new escpos.Printer(device);

function printItems(items){
  device.open(function(){
    printer.font('a')
      .style('NORMAL')
      .size(1,1);
    items.forEach(function(item) {
      printer.align("LT")
        .marginLeft('8')
        .marginRight('8')
        .marginBottom('8')
        .print(item["name"])
        .control("HT")
        .println(parseFloat(item["price"]));
    });
  });
}

var items = [
  {"name": "hotdog",
    "price" : 2.01}
];
printItems(items);

device.open(function(){
  printer.cut();
  printer.close();
});

When the receipt prints, the text is right up against the left and bottom edges (the text is not long enough to reach the right edge).

Hi, I tried the above code again with the new 2.4.1 version of the code and it is still not working. Is there something I should be doing differently?
