Pretty much what 4D said... I think the easiest way would be to move to the location that you want to have X0Y0, then go into MDI tab and type in the offset #, ie: G55 (just G55) and hit enter. Then go to Manual Control Tab, and click on 'Set X/Y Origin' button on the right. Now your G55 work offset X0Y0 is set to that spot.
Now as 4D said, copy and modify a post processor for G55. Not much programming involved, you are just changing more than likely G54 to G55 (or whatever work offset you want). Then when you save your toolpath, just pick the post processor with the correct work offset. Sounds way more complicated than it really is..
