11.6 Adjustng the Dot Prntng Poston (Dot Model)

This section explains the details of adjusting the dot printing position on the chart paper.
It is recommended that the position be adjusted once a year to assure its recording

environment in which the recorder is used, it is recommended that the position be readjusted
before use.
