IBM 4610-TM6 - SureMark Printer TM6 Two-color Thermal Transfer, User Manual

Page: 191 / 244

Remarks
Image location ( n1 ) of 0 prints the most recently scanned image to the
thermal station.
The top-left corner of the scanned document is used as the point of
reference. All x, dx, y, and dy, values are based on 0.01 inch. The paper
movement path is the y axis, and the scan head dot row is the x axis.
In all cases, dx and dy define the area’s width to the right, and height down.
If dx and dy extend the printer area further than the boundaries of the
image, the value is truncated to the image boundary. If the size of the print
area is greater than the thermal print head can print (either from image size
or scaling), the image is truncated to the width of the print head. The only
scaling options are 100% (no scaling) and 200% (double). Tag data
included with the image is not printed.
If the image is stored in JPEG format, then graphics printing is not
supported.
