When shipped from the factory, the Form Names will be set to “FORM 0”
through “FORM 9”. This name may be changed to any combination of
capital letters (A-Z), numerals (0-9), or spaces. The name may be up to
16 characters in length.

Entering a name uses the SUBMENU and VALUE buttons. The SUBMENU
button will advance the cursor, a flashing block, which is used to indicate
the character that is to be changed. The VALUE buttons will change the
character where the cursor is currently flashing. The order of characters
that may be selected is “ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ, Space,
0123456789”. Even though the name will be right justified while being
entered, it will be automatically centered on the display when not in Setup
Mode, so there is no need to try to center it with spaces.

This item is only available in the FormsMaster 8003se and is used to set the
tractor path to be used for the currently selected form. Typically, most
forms are only loaded in one tractor path and the value will be set to
Front, Center, or Rear.

However, a form can also be set to use multiple paths. This may be
desirable when printing long print jobs where a paper out condition needs to

and perhaps unattended location. When a form’s tractor path is set to

Center+Rear or Frnt+Cntr+Rear

, the printer will automatically switch to
