Determining the setting values for printing
Based on the size of the image you plan to print and on the resolution of the printer, use the following formulas to determine the final scanning settings.
Main scan zoom (%): | HX = |
| X × 100 |

The parameter values for the ESC R, ESC H, and ESC A commands then become as follows:
ESC R : | n1 | = RPX, n2 = RPY |
ESC H : | i1 = HX, i2 = HY | |
ESC A: | n1 | = N1, n2 = N2, n3 = N3, n4 = N4 |
Note:
On scanners that can respond to printers and other various output devices, you can set the RPX and RPY values to match the horizontal and vertical resolution of your target printer.
