Printer User Manual

To create this sequence:
1.
Define fields 1, 2, 3, and 4.
2.
Define field 5 as a bar code. Allow enough characters in the
bar code field to hold all the copied characters.
3.
Apply Option 4 to field 5 once for every source field.
Sub-Fields
You can copy a segment of data from one field into a new
location, called a sub-field. For example, extract part of the data
in a bar code and display it in text form in a sub-field. Then, use
the copy data option.
Option 5 (Define Data Entry Sources)
Defines how data is entered into a field. If the field holds all fixed
characters or copied data only, you can eliminate the operator
prompt. Use Option 5 only once per field. You must use the 917
keypad with the 9850 printer for offline data entry.
Option 5 is required for offline data entry on
the 9403 and 9850 printers.
