The drawing center is derived from the center of the printable area determined in "47. Method to Determine Original Size" and the size adjusted by settings in "39. Margin Adjustment for Auto Reduce/Enlarge" settings.
The center of the paper is the center of the printable area selected in "23. Printable Area (Hard Clip)".
The centering function is invalid when "PS/IP Command" is selected for "47. Method to Determine Original Size" but no PS command (RP-GL/2) or IP command (RP-GL) is in the drawing data.
The "Positive Printable Area" settings are effective if "7475A" or "7550A" is selected for "6. Plotter ID", or either "Entire Image" or "Auto" is selected for "47. Method to Determine Original Size".
When reduced/enlarged by the settings for "20. Reproduction Ratio", "29. Auto Reduce / Enlarge", or "43. Method to Auto Select Paper Tray"; centering is applied to the reduced/enlarged drawing.
When the drawing is rotated by the settings for "5. Axis Rotation", "29. Auto Reduce / Enlarge", or "43. Method to Auto Select Paper Tray"; centering is applied to the rotated drawing.
Centering is applied first, and then the location of the drawing is adjusted according to the values specified in "7. Adjust Origin: Offset X-axis" and "8. Adjust Origin: Offset Y-axis".
If you select a custom size when "Org Sz Dtrmnd + R/E Ratio: Cor Valu" (submenu is ignored) is selected in "43. Method to Auto Select Paper Tray", the same size as the original is automatically selected as the output paper size. The printing result may not appear to reflect the effect of centering, even when "On" is selected for centering.
