10. Establishing Daily Procedures
This chapter provides some suggestions for setting up
procedures for your operators.
Daily Startup Checklist
You may wish to design a check list for operators to follow
each day. Here are some suggested check list items.
_____ Turn the printer On.
_____ Make sure ribbon and supplies are loaded.
_____ Download formats from the computer to the printer
(include instructions, if necessary).
Data Entry Instructions for Operators
Find the Data Entry Guide in Appendix D, "Format Design
Tools." Use this form to tell the operator what data to enter
when printing supplies. Here is how to fill out the form.
1. Make copies of the form and work from the copies.
2. Write the format name and number on the first line of the
form and the blank space in step 6.
3. Write the supply size on the second line. Include any other
information the operator needs to know about the supply
(i.e., needs ribbon, etc.).
4. Write the type of format (Temporary, Standard, Memory
card, or Permanent) in the blank space on step 5.
5. Write the first prompt in the box in step 7. On the lines to
the right, tell the operator how to respond.
6. Continue through all prompts in the same manner.
