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

key. The display

changes as follows:

(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 “###”.

Before printing, you can press the DELETE key to erase the number
you have entered. Pressing DELETE again will exit the NUMBERING
mode.

The last number to be printed must be selected from within the range
1-9.

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.
