A format is the design of a receipt that the application prints with the
printer. It consists of fields placed at various places on the format. Fields
can contain text, graphics, and bar codes.

This chapter describes the commands used to create formats.

C r e a t i n g T e x t F i e l d s

Text fields can contain letters, numbers, and symbols. To specify text
appearing on the format you create, write the text directly to the printer.
There is no special command to use. There are, however,
commands/control characters to select a character set to use and to format
the text.

Selecting Character Sets

The printer can use the ANSI or ASCII character sets. These character sets
are preloaded in the printer. ANSI characters are the default.
