For this printer, the data must be configured bearing in mind the vertical positions of the nozzles. EPSON printers are
generally having print heads with nozzles for each color structured in the same vertical position, but this printer head takes
the black1 nozzle as a reference point. The Black2 and Magenta nozzles are 1/360 inch, and Black3 and Yellow nozzles are
2/360 inch low to the reference point. When transferring data to the printer, these offsets must be taken into consideration.
Correspondence table of raster command row and the nozzle are shown below.
