[*2] When back feed is disabled, the top margin of approximately 13 mm from the printing position to
the cutting position can be set. When printing after cutting the paper, a top margin of over 14 mm is
possible by feeding paper at least 1 mm (8-dot line).
If back feed is enabled, the top margin of approximately 3 mm (Ver. 3.2 or later: 3 mm/7 mm selectable)
occurs by performing a back feed from the cutting position before feeding the next sheet or printing.
Note that back feeds will not occur even if they back feed is enabled, after executing a full cut after a
partial cut.
Also, settings according to MSW1-9 are disabled because in Raster mode, a raster command sets whether
to disable or enable back feeds. MSW1-A settings are enabled only for Ver. 3.2 or later.)
