Method for identifying coordinate data for selected locations on preprinted paper and supplying the data to a printer for printing at corresponding locations

摘要

In a method for inputting, into a printer memory, printing initiation positions for a standard preformed paper, a touch panel is superimposed upon a sheet of the standard preformed paper which has a printing format already printed on the paper. Coordinate data of printing initiation positions of the desired printing format are entered through contact with the touch panel by a touch pen. The touch panel produces input coordinate data which are input into the printer as printing format data.
