Date and Time Feature
The date and time feature allows you to set the internal clock and calendar in your printer. You can also change how the date or time displays and prints.
The first thing you must do is set the internal clock with the current date and time. See "Setting the Date and Time." This lets you use date or time for printing if your formats contain these fields.1
If you need to change the styles for date or time see "Changing Date and Time Styles."
