Explanation
POC (Pen Offset Compensation)
On: Enables pen offset compensation.
Off: Disables pen offset compensation.
Note
When pen offset compensation is enabled, all pens are aligned with the reference pen (pen
that is furthest to the back: pen 2 on the 2-pen model, pen 3 on the 3-pen model, and pen 4
on the 4-pen model) for recording. When recording is started, only the reference pen moves
until the offset is compensated. This is not a malfunction.
When pen offset compensation is enabled, an asterisk is printed by the time on the periodic
printout.
