Depends, I think. In this particular case (the ¤ 5 notes made by P =
Giesecke & Devrient) it should be six "columns" and ten "lines" per
sheet. Here is some more info (unofficial, in German) about those
printers codes:

(Not my page, and I don't know whether that information is actually
accurate.) Unfortunately the official website of the European Central
Bank is not very "talkative" when it comes to those codes ...

It is my understanding that:
Plate Position is
rows x columns rows columns
5€ 10 x 6 A-J 6
10€ 9 x 6 A-I 6
20€ 9 x 5 A-I 5
50€ 8 x 5 A-H 5
100€ 7 x 5 A-G 5
200€ 7 x 5 A-G 5
500€ 7 x 5 A-G 5
