Creating a Lookup Table
The printer requires a comma-delimited ASCII sequential or flat file to use
the database option. Create the sequential file using four comma-
delimited fields.
Note: Although formats may not require all of the fields, separate each
field with a comma even if the field is blank.
The four fields include the following:
♦ UPC-A bar code - numeric or alphanumeric (12 digits)
♦ department - numeric only (0-4 digits)
♦ description - alphanumeric (general information field, 0-14 digits)
♦ price - numeric only (Dollar sign and decimal automatically inserted
Note: Each record must have four columns even if one or more are
empty.
A full record might look like this example:
028028111119,7512,SHIRT,1499
Note: You must save this file to lu(1,2,3,).txt or you cannot download
successfully.
