4-8 Recording the Amount of Remaining Media

Displaying the Amount of Remaining Media on the Screen

You can display how much of the media in use is left.
Once you set the amount of media remaining, the amount remaining is displayed at the top menu until it reaches zero. If
you cancel the setup such as by removing the media or raising the loading lever, the amount remaining at that time flashes
on the screen.
* The remaining amount that is displayed is only an estimate, and its accuracy is not assured.
