Technical material, inspection, and the interdependence of the components showed that the printer was essential to the main system and had no independent function as an automatic data-processing unit on these facts. Under Section Notes 3, 4 and 5 of Section XVI, composite machines and interconnected components contributing to a clearly defined principal function are classified by that principal function.
