The BOSS's origin is in the upper left of the drawing, as opposed to the Epilog, which has the origin in the upper right. Unlike the Epilog, there is no known origin, as the honeycomb bed is movable and doesn't have a set edge. Set up your materials reasonably square. Note that if the materials are too close to the edge of the bed, you'll get a "slop" warning. This unhelpful message means that the design you intend to cut will be truncated at the edge of the bed.
