NUMBERING The NUMBERING function can be used to automatically increment numbers included in otherwise identical texts. For example, when printing text with a series of dates ("JULY 4, 1962"; "JULY 5, 1962"; and "JULY 6, 1962"), the auto count function will enable printing of all three texts in a single print operation. To use the AUTO COUNT function when printing: It is recommend to set the TAPE FEED mode to "#", "##" or "###". (Please refer to page 39.) (1) Type in message to be printed. (2) Position the cursor beneath the number in the text to be incremented. Then hold down the CODE key and press the NUMBER Q NUMBER key. The display changes as follows: A A A AA JU L Y 4 , 1962 CAPS STL UNDL/FRM A A A AA 1-9? CAPS STL UNDL/FRM (3) The screen will prompt the selection of the last number to be printed. (In the example described above, the last number would be 6.) (4) Press PRINT and the text will be printed out. Printing will be repeated, with the number specified incremented to the next number. This operation will continue until the last number is reached. Press the CODE + FEED keys before cutting the tape if the TAPE FEED mode is set to or "###". Note: q Before printing, you can press the DELETE key to erase the number you have entered. Pressing DELETE again will exit the NUMBERING mode. q The last number to be printed must be selected from within the range 1-9. q If you enter a number that is lower than the one originally entered in the text, printing will be disabled, and an "ERR" (ERROR) message will appear on the display if you press the PRINT key. -35-
