Incrementing Fields (Option 60)

You may have a field, such as a serial number, in which you
need to increment (increase) or decrement (decrease) the
value on successive supplies within a single batch.

Incrementing should be applied to

numeric data only. If you

have a field that includes letters and digits, apply incrementing
only to the portion of the field that contains digits.

NOTE: This option may cause a printing delay between

supplies.

1.

Define your text or bar code field on the Format Worksheet
as shown in Chapter 2, "Designing a Format."

2.

Find Option 60 on the
Format Worksheet. This option
increments fields.

Make sure you enter the
incrementing option in the same
row as the field to which it
applies.

3.

In box R3, after 60, place an I if
the value increases as you print
or a D if the value decreases as
you print.

4.

Write the amount by which the
printer counts in box R4. For
example, do you want to count
by 1’s, 2’s, 10’s, etc.? Values
range from 1 to 32,000.
