3.4.2 Selecting the STEP SIZE or ORIGIN POINT
The STEP SIZE Setting
The STEP SIZE setting is only required when the COMMAND setting is GP-GL. In GP-GL command
mode, it is possible to change the minimum unit of distance which the cutter pen or pen can travel
to one of four settings: 0.01, 0.025, 0.05, or 0.1 mm. The default setting is 0.1 mm, so change this setting
if your application specifies a different step size (also referred to as “programmable resolution).
The ORIGIN POINT setting
The ORIGIN POINT setting is only required when the COMMAND setting is HP-GL. This setting allows
you to position the origin point at the lower left or center of the effective cutting/plotting area. The default
setting is L.L. (Lower Left), so change this setting if your application specifies a different origin position.
