Default value: 0,0
Reset to default by: PRINTFEED execution.
Remarks
When the printer is set up, a “print window” is created. This involves
specifying the location of the origin along the X-axis, setting the max.
print width along the X-axis from origin, and setting the max. print length
along the Y-axis from origin.
The X-coordinate goes across the media path and the Y-coordinate along
the media feed direction, as illustrated below. They are set in relation to the
origin on the printhead, not in relation to the media. Thus, the position where
an object actually will be printed depends on the relation between printhead
and media at the moment when the printing starts.
