●Parameter
A[Horizontal length of the mirror image area]
B[Vertical length of the mirror image area]
[Coding Example 1] When specifying the mirror image area:
<A>
<H>100<V>200<XM>12345
<H>100<V>200<RM>0200,0080
<Q>1
<Z>
[Coding Example 2] When not specifying the mirror image area:
<A>
<H>100<V>200<XS>12345
<RM>
<Q>1
<Z>
[Notes]
1. When the parameter "aaaa" and "bbbbb" are not specified, all print data specified prior to this command will be mirrored.
2. Any data outside the printable area will not be mirrored.
3. If specifying this command for the item that does not contain print data, the command error will occur.
4. This command cannot be used together with other commands that reedit the print data. Refer to the invalid command for
the list below. When invalid commands are specified, printing may not be correct.
5. This command cannot be used together with some of the control commands. Refer to the invalid command for the list below.
When invalid commands are specified, printing may not be correct.
6. This command cannot be used together with some of the modification commands. Refer to the invalid command for the

mirror printed.
Also, note that when specifying the mirror printing command more than once, the image will be rotated for the specified
number of times and printed.
8. When a barcode is mirror printed, the reading of the mirrored barcode and head check area are not guaranteed.
9. When mirror printing is implemented, all mirrored image is targeted for the head check.
