[Description]

Sets the printable area when Page mode is selected.
  • Sets the horizontal size to [(wxL + wxH × 256) × horizontal motion units] from the horizontal offset.
  • Sets the vertical size to [(wyL + wyH × 256) × vertical motion units] from the absolute origin.
  • Sets the horizontal offset to the [(oxL + oxH × 256) × horizontal motion units] position.

[Notes]

  • Use this function when the Standard mode is selected.
  • In this function, horizontal indicates "perpendicular to the feed direction," while vertical indicates "the feed direction."
  • A horizontal size or vertical size of 0 cannot be set.
  • The horizontal motion unit is used to calculate the horizontal size and horizontal offset.
  • The vertical motion unit is used to calculate the vertical size.
  • If the maximum settable area is exceeded, the following corrective action is taken.
    • If the specified horizontal size exceeds the maximum settable area [horizontal size = maximum value for the printable area] is set.
    • If the specified (horizontal offset + horizontal size) exceeds the maximum settable area [horizontal offset = (maximum value for the printable area − horizontal size)] is set.
    • If the specified vertical size exceeds 1,016 mm {40 inches}, [vertical size = 1,016 mm {40 inches}] is set.
    • If the maximum value for the area size specified by the model is exceeded, the corrective action specified by the model is executed.
  • If the horizontal and vertical motion units are changed after the printable area is set, the printable area set does not change.
  • When using the Page mode with models that support this command, the following rules apply.
    • The printable area set with this function is the maximum value for the area that can be specified with ESC W.
    • The top left of the printable area set with this function is treated as the absolute origin of ESC W.
    • If the printable area is changed with this function, set the printing area with ESC W after the printable area change.
  • The setting value of this function is valid until ESC @, reset, or power off are executed.
  • Settings of this function do not affect printing in Standard mode.
