FORMS MENU
Most form printing applications use several different forms such as packing
lists, bills of lading, invoices, checks, and green bar paper for reports. Not
all of these forms require the same printer settings for things such as font,
character size, line spacing, or form length. The FormsMaster 8000 series
printers store up to ten complete sets of form parameters including the name
of the form. These ten sets of parameters, or “forms”, are permanently
stored in the printer’s memory and are referred to as “Form 0” through
“Form 9”. These forms can be accessed from a single button on the
printer’s control panel or by a command sent from the host computer.
To access the FORMS MENU, enter Setup by pressing the SETUP button.
After the “Entering Setup Menus” message has been displayed, the
following will appear.
FORMS MENU
Form 0
Note that the actual form number will be for the form that was active prior to
entering Setup. To select a different form, press the SUBMENU button until
the desired form is displayed. Next press either of the ITEM buttons to begin
displaying the various items for that form. The items available for each
form are described on the following pages. The factory default values are
indicated with an asterisk (*) in this manual (the asterisk does not appear on
the printer’s display).
