[Description] Selects the print direction and starting position in page mode.
n
specifies the print direction and starting position as follows:
[Notes] • When the printing direction is changed, the printing direction and
print starting position for the data following are those specified by
n
.
• Only setting of this command is effective in standard mode.
•If

[Description] Sets the position and the size of the printing area.
• When the horizontal print start position, vertical print start
position, horizontal length, and vertical length are defined as
x
0,
y
0,
dx
(dot),
dy
(dot), respectively.
Each setting for the printable area is calculated as follows:
x
0 = [(
xL
+
xH
✕ 256)]
y
0 = [(
yL
+
yH
✕ 256)]
