Input Data Format
•If there is a fraction as a result of calculations, interpolation is carried out at the mechanism's minimum pitch. Remainders are cut off.
•The basic calculation pitch (x) is used in calculating the horizontal starting point and the horizontal length and the basic calculation pitch (y) is used in calculating the vertical starting point and the vertical length.
•If X is the horizontal starting point, Y is the vertical starting point, Dx is the hori- zontal length and Dy is the vertical length, the printing area becomes as shown in the following diagram.
