because of PWB repair, etc. (In the production stage, it is nec-
essary to execute this in the last process.)

sheets have been printed since start of use? and others). The
ordinary memory does not reset the counter. Accordingly, it is
necessary to reset the counter or do the clear process in addi-
tion to the ordinary memory clear if the content in the memory
on the control PWB is broken because of PWB repair, etc. (In
the production stage, it is necessary to execute this in the last
process.)
