Function:

1)The printing position in the X direction is set to a position spaced in the positive direction by ((m4×256×256×256 +m3×256×256 + m2×256 + m1) x (absolute horizontal position setting units) inches from the origin (the left margin position) on the X axis of the position management coordinate system.

If the left margin position + (m4×256×256×256 +m3×256×256 + m2×256 + m1) x (absolute horizontal position setting units) is past the right margin position, then this command is ignored.
