Increment/decrement
Printing is performed while the data is incremented or decremented every time a label is
issued. Where the data row exceeds the maximum number of digits (40), the data row
will not be drawn.
When the font type is U, V, r, s, w, a (for JA type only), 41, 42, 43 or 51, increment/
decrement cannot be designated.
(Even if it is designated, it is ignored.)

Letters and numerals for increment/decrement
For the data string, up to 40 digits (including letters, numerals, and symbols) are
possible. Only the numerals are selected and calculated for
incrementing/decrementing, and then are returned to the previous position to draw the
data.

Zero(s) in a data row is replaced with a space(s) from the upper digits, according to the
designated number of digits. However, if the number of digits after zero suppression is
greater than the data row, the data row will be drawn without performing zero suppression.
Where the data row exceeds the maximum number of digits (40), the data row will not be
drawn.
When the font type is U, V, r, s w, a (for JA type only), 41, 42, 43 or 51, zero suppression is
not designated.
(Even if it is designated, it is ignored.)
