ESC W xL xH yL yH dxL dxH dyL dyH

[Function]	Defining the print area in PAGE MODE
[Code]	<1B>H<57>H<xL><xH><yL><yH><dxL><dxH><dyL><dyH>
[Range]	0 xL, xH, yL, yH, dxL, dxH, dyL, dyH 255,
	except for dxL = dxH = 0 or dyL = dyH = 0
[Outline]	Defines the location and size of the print area.
	• Horizontal start point = [(xL + xH ⋅ 256) ⋅ basic calculation
	pitch].
	• Vertical start point = [(yL + yH ⋅ 256) ⋅ basic calculation pitch].
	• Horizontal length = [(dxL + dxH ⋅ 256) ⋅ basic calculation pitch].
	• Vertical length = [(dyL + dyH ⋅ 256) ⋅ basic calculation pitch].
[Caution]	• When STANDARD MODE is selected, this command only
	executes the internal flagging of the printer without affecting
	the printing in STANDARD MODE.
	• If the horizontal start point or vertical start point is out of the
	printable area, this command is canceled and the next data is
	handled as normal data.
	• If the horizontal length or vertical length is 0, this command is
	canceled and the next data is handled as normal data.
	• The character mapping position will be the start point specified
	by ESC T in the print area.
	• If the “horizontal start point + horizontal length” is greater
	than the horizontal printable area, the “horizontal printable
	area - horizontal start point” is taken as the horizontal length.
	• If the “vertical start point + vertical length” is greater than the
	vertical printable area, the “vertical printable area - vertical
	start point” is taken as the vertical length.
	• The basic calculation pitch is defined by GS P. Once defined,
	the print area is not changed if the basic calculation pitch is
	changed by GS P.
	• Fractions resulting from calculations are corrected with the
	minimum pitch of the mechanism, and the remainder is
	omitted.
	• The horizontal start point and horizontal length are calculated
	with the basic calculation pitch (x). The vertical start point and
	vertical length are calculated with the basic calculation pitch
	(y).
