Using the Operator Data Entry Form
After you create a format, fill out the operator data entry form. This form can
be used as an instruction sheet for your operators to follow while they print
labels. Record the data entry prompts that the operator will see when using
the printer.
Follow these steps to record the data entry procedures.
1. Format Name
Enter the Format Name in the upper right corner of
the form.
2. Supply Type
Enter information about the supply type the Operator
must use.
3. Supply Size
Enter the supply size to use.
4. Purpose
Enter the purpose of the label on the next line. For
example, you can write standard label or 25%
markdowns.
5. Print Sample
Apply a sample of the label.
6. Prompt
Enter the first data entry prompt in the empty box at
left.
7. Response
Enter the response for the prompt. Continue entering
prompts and responses until you reach the end of the
format.
8. Special Instructions
In the "Special Instructions" section at the bottom of
the form, record any special instructions to the
Operator. For example, you can tell them to load the
labels for peel mode.
Blank forms are provided at the end of the chapter for you to copy.
