Roland FJ-40 - Manual (Page 28)

2 Basic Operation
Printing at the Desired Location
This sets the location where printing starts.
Normally the origin point is set at the lower-right point of the printing area.
When [SHEET TYPE] is set to [OPAQUE], the width of
the printing area is set automatically (see "4-3 Printing
Area").
To determine the desired printing area, follow the steps in
"Setting the printing area in the left-right direction (the
direction of carriage movement)" to set the width of the
printing area. When [SHEET TYPE] is set to [CLEAR],
the printing area is not set automatically, so set the
printing area in the same way. If this setting is not made,
the printing area uses the maximum value for the FJ-50/
40.
Canceling setup cancels the printing area.
Specifying a location in the lengthwise direction
Use the [ ] and [ ] keys to move the material to the
location where you want to start printing.
In the figure, the next printing operation starts from the
location shown.
* For roll material, when the material has been returned
toward the back of the unit with the [ ] key, manually
roll the material back onto the roll so that all of the
material at the back of the unit is stretched taut.
The next printing operation starts here.

change.
Follow the step in both "Specifying a location in the
lengthwise direction" and "Specifying a location in the
left-right direction (the direction of carriage movement)"
to set the start point.
