● Kana, alphanumeric characters, and user patterns can be set as substitution characters.
● Substitution characters for the year are applied for 25 years from the year of the calendar date.
[Note] Substitution characters for the year are deleted for the previous year as a year passes. At this time,
the substitution characters after 25 years become spaces.
If the current date and time [Year] is set to the past, the substitution characters for the present year
also become spaces.
(2) Zero-suppression function
● Prints by replacing "0" in the leftmost digit of the calendar characters with a space. Alternatively, it
prints characters left-aligned with "0" deleted.
