wifi columns text-formatting printf wpa-cli

                          How would you suggest to align all SSID in one single column in the wpa_cli scan_result command?

To be clear, I want to transform this output

    # wpa_cli scan_results
    d8:fb:5e:a5:38:20	[WPA2-PSK-CCMP][WPS][ESS] zdn-11878
    08:96:d7:7e:d8:12	[WPA-PSK-TKIP][WPA2-PSK-CCMP][WPS][ESS] Ubeda 5
    6c:3b:e5:4b:ea:00	[WPA2-PSK-CCMP][ESS] HP-Print-

Into this one

    # wpa_cli scan_results
    d8:fb:5e:a5:38:20	[WPA2-PSK-CCMP][WPS][ESS]	                zdn-11878
    08:96:d7:7e:d8:12	[WPA-PSK-TKIP][WPA2-PSK-CCMP][WPS][ESS]   	Ubeda 5
    6c:3b:e5:4b:ea:00	[WPA2-PSK-CCMP][ESS]	                    HP-Print-00-Photosmart 5520
