[Description]
The horizontal starting position, vertical starting position, printing area
width, and printing area height are defined as x0, y0, dx(inch),
respectively.
x0 = [(xL + xH x 256)] x (horizontal motion unit)
y0 = [(yL + yH x 256)] x (vertical motion unit)
dx = [(dxL + dxH x 256)] x (horizontal motion unit)
dy = [(dyL + dyH x 256)] x (vertical motion unit)
The printing area is set as shown in the figure below.
[Notes]
1) If this commands is input in standard mode, the printer executes
only internal flag operation. This command does not affect printing
in standard mode.
2) If the horizontal or vertical starting position is set outside the
printable area, the printer stops command processing and
processes the following data as normal data.
3) If the printing area width or height is set to 0, the printer stops
command processing and processes the following data as normal
data.
4) This command sets the position where data is buffered to the
position specified by ESC T within the printing area.
5) If (horizontal starting po printing area width) exceeds the
printable area, the printing area width is automatically set to
(horizontal printable area-horizontal starting position).
6) If (vertical starting po printing area height) exceeds the
printable area, the printing area height is automatically set to
