When the Start Location Is Specified Using [ ] and [ ] Keys
When the operation is performed using only the [ ] and [ ] keys, the cutting carriage comes to a stop inside the cover.
Pressing the [BASE POINT] key while in this state sets just the start position for the feed direction (the direction of front-to-
back movement). For the scanning direction (the direction of carriage movement), the setting is made at the edge of the printing
area.
