7.0 Print Formatting
The 590 AG Indicator provides three print formats, GFMT, GPFMT, and LDFMT that determine the format of the
printed output when the
PRINT key is pressed or when a KPRINT EDP command is received.
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.
7.1 Print Formatting Commands
Table 7-1 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.
