To exit Setup Mode and automatically go on line, press ONLINE. The
display will now show one of the above messages, if changes were made,

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 8000se
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).
