Value and behavior

  • Specify the distance using an integer or decimal within the range of ±100 cm with its unit appended at the end. A negative value moves the print position to the left, and a positive value moves the position to the right.

  • The distance can be specified in mm, inch (1 inch = approximately 25.4 mm), pt (points) or dot (number or dots) units, unless the specified value exceeds the above-mentioned range. For example, if you want to set the horizontal offset distance to 25 mm, enter the printing option as follows:

    xoffset=25 mm

    When no unit is appended at the end of the value, the machine calculates the area assuming the unit of the specified value is "cm".

Explanation

  • When this printing option is specified, the actual distance by which the images are moved on paper is calculated by adding this value and the value specified for "D. X Offset" on the RTIFF Menu.

  • If the "O. Centring" setting on the RTIFF Menu is specified, or either the "center" or "nocenter" printing option is specified, the print position moves in the horizontal direction according to the value specified for the setting and the value specified for this printing option.
