The maximum plotting area (the area where plotting is possible) varies depending on the paper
size standard and paper size setting, which are both set with the DiP switches, and the expand
mode selection.
When selecting the DXY-GL commanads by DIP switch, the size of the maximum plotting area in
plotter coordinate units (0.1mm or 0.025mm) does not change, but the units will be different.
