HP (Hewlett-Packard) 220240 Printer User Manual


 
4.5.2.1 Offset Position (offsetX, offsetY)
The offset feature of the LAYOUT menu allows you to make fine
adjustments to the printing coordinates. Since the DEClaser 2200 plus
printer is a page printer, it is not possible to adjust the print position by
manually shifting the position of the page. Do not use offset to move normal
data to different positions on the page. Use it only to center the print on
the page. Test Print B is typically used to adjust the offset positions.
You cannot set offset positions using escape sequences from the host
computer. You must select them from the control panel.
Figure 4–6 shows the directions of offsetX and offsetY in relation to the
direction that paper is fed into the printer.
NOTE: Offset values are changed in increments and decrements of
approximately 0.1 in. from the default value of +0.0 in. For example, an
offset value of +5.0 moves the print origin approximately 0.5 in.
