6.0 Print Formatting
The
320IS
provides four print formats, GFMT, NFMT, and CFMT that determine the format of the printed output
when the
PRINT
key is pressed or when a KPRINT EDP command is received. If a tare has been entered or
acquired, NFMT is used; otherwise, GFMT is used.
Each print format can be customized to include up to 300 characters of information, such as company name and
address, on printed tickets. You can use the indicator front panel (PFORMT menu), EDP commands, or the
Revolution
® configuration utility to customize the print formats.
6.1 Print Formatting Commands
Table 6-1 lists commands you can use to format the gross and net print formats. Commands included in the format
strings must be enclosed between < and > delimiters. Any characters outside of the delimiters are printed as text on
the ticket. Text characters can include any ASCII character that can be printed by the output device.
The default GFMT and NFMT print formats use only the new line () command and the commands for gross,
net, and tare weights in displayed units (, , and ).
The default
320IS print formats are shown in Table 6-2:
