■ Auto-phase
This function is used to form, with the timing varied,

appropriate for printing. If the charge timing is
improperly adjusted, proper prints will not be
obtained.

"hour," "minute" and "second"of date/time values.
They are shaded when they are displayed as the
printings within the print content creation screen.
■ Calendar conditions
This is a feature that is used to define the offset, use
of substitutions, zero suppression, and other
calendar character attributes. It is called up from the
edit message screen.
■
Calendar offset
This is a feature that is used to add the calendar
values to the offset values and use the results of
addition as the printings. When determining the
calendar year/month offset, you can choose between
"offset from yesterday" and "from today."
■
Calendar time
Time on which calendar value calculations are
based. While the date/time setup screen is displayed
as a maintenance menu option, you can effect
calendar time changeover between "same as current
time" and "clock stop."
■ Calendar values
Date and time values that correspond to calendar
characters.
■ Calibrate touch screen coordinates
This function is exercised so that the position of touch
panel depression coincides with the display position.
It is called up from the auxiliary function menu.
■
Change message name
This function is used to change the message names
of saved print data.
