Using Multiple Batches with One Format
You can send multiple batches for any format previously loaded
into the printer. To do so, send the format to the printer, then
send as many batches as you want to print data on that format.
This allows you to send multiple batches without sending a new
format with each batch.
Using Previously Defined Print Data
When sending multiple batches for one format, you can "re-use"
your print data. On consecutive batches, the data in a field does
not change, omit that field from the later batch.
When you leave out any field number that was specified in the
preceding batch, the data used in the preceding batch will print on
following batches until new field data is entered.
For example, batch 1 below prints a date in text field T01. Since
batch 1 and batch 2 are printed on the same day, batch 2 can
leave out field T01. Since T01 was defined in the preceding
batch, it will automatically print in batch 2.
Batch 1: Batch 2:
{ B12,1,0,1,1,0,C; p { B12,1,0,1,1,0,C; p
T01;12/31/90 p T02;Stock #52014
T02;Stock #43768 T03;Sprinkler }
T03;100’ Hose }
If two fields overlap, do NOT use this feature.
If fields overlap, you must send the format
before each batch.
