<Thermal>
The following commands are valid only when slip/validation have been selected. Their use is prohib-
ited when thermal has been selected.
<Slip>,<Validation>
Set page mode print region
Use the left edge coordinate of the current position when the printer enters page mode as (0,0), and
specify the starting point (X0, Y0) of the page region using xLxH,yLyH, and specify the length dx of
the X direction using dxL, dxH, and the length dY of the Y direction using dyL, dyH.
Starting Point X0 = xL (xH x 256) dots
Starting Point Y0 = yL (yH x 256) dots
Length of Horizontal Direction Dx = dxL + (dxH x 256) dots
Length of Vertical Direction Dy = dyL + (dyH x 256) dots
If the parameter is out of range, this command is invalid.
This command is stored even in line mode. However, the position when the printer enters page
mode is applied for the reference point (0,0).
Expansion of print data into the page is performed using the bottom edge of the characters as the
base line, so a print region higher than the minimum of 9 dots is necessary for the height direction of
the characters. (When using vertical double tall expanded characters, it is necessary to execute an
extra paper feed in advance.)
