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 PrintMaster 850 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 MENU button.
After the “Entering Setup Menus” message has been displayed,
the following will appear.

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 the ALIGN/ITEM button 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).
