Printer Command Field
Every printer has its own set of commands. Using these commands can be helpful when printing to a
pre-printed form. The TransAct program understands the decimal version of the command when
enclosed in double back slashes. The first line of the sample ticket is a printer command, \\27 24 18\\.
This command initializes the printer and sets the character pitch for an Okidata ML320. Consult the
User’s Guide of your printer for a list of valid printer commands.
Static Text Fields
Static text fields are contained in double quotes (“). Any desired text character enclosed in the double
quotes, spaces included, will appear on the ticket.
Example: “My Grain Elevator”, “Gross“, “Tare”, “Net”
Database Fields
Database fields are fields that are stored in the TransAct database. A database field is placed on a ticket
by enclosing the field name in square brackets ([ ]). The following is a list of database field names that
can be used in the ticket format file.
