[Supplementary Explanation]
1. Position specification of Vertical Print Position <V> and Horizontal Print Position <H> are the absolute value from its
base reference point.
2. When the value of parameter "a" is between 4 and 9, it will be processed as a command error and ignored. When
the value other than numeric is specified, this will be ignored and printing at 0 degree.
3. Print of barcode using Serial 1 or Serial 2 may cause blur. Drop the print speed for rotation print of Serial 1 and
Serial 2 for better performance.
