4.14 Setting the Cutting/Plotting Area
This function allows the area in which cutting/plotting will be performed to be specified, thereby preventing
cutting/plotting outside the specified area. This function enables more efficient use of the medium through the
specification of uncut portions of a medium that have already been cut, to avoid the previously cut areas.
Note that setting of the cutting/plotting area also repositions the origin point in accordance with the
movement of the cutting area.
