misnumbers
Gets digits wrong
To misnumber is to number incorrectly—assigning wrong numbers to items in a sequence, labeling pages out of order, or making errors in numerical designation: The printer misnumbers the pages after chapter three.
The error usually creates confusion that requires correction or workaround.
