中なか村むらさん

おはようございます

昨日きのうプリンターが故こ障しょうしたので、川かわ名な電でん気きに修しゅう理りを頼たのみました。修しゅう理りの人ひとは、10時ときに来きてくれるそうです。わたしは授じゅ業ぎょうがあるので、修しゅう理りの人ひとが来きたら、プリンターの場ば所しょに案あん内ないをお願ねがいします。

故こ障しょうの内ない容ようですが、印いん刷さつする時ときに紙かみにインクの汚よごれがついてしまいます。実際じっさいに印いん刷さつした紙かみがプリンタ一いちのところに置おいてありますから、それを修しゅう理りの人ひとに見みせて説とき明あかしてください。

修しゅう理りが済すんだら、午ご後ごのゼミの資し料りょうを人数分にんずうぶん用よう意いしておいてください。
