device.position.altitude

This printer setting retrieves the altitude above sea level.
The value is in meters above sea level. A positive number indicates a position above sea level. A negative number indicates a position below sea level. The position of sea level depends upon the system used to provide a nominal sea level reference position. This is often the World Geodetic System WGS 84 standard but depends upon the location provider.
