Each operator entry field allows the cassette printer operator to enter a
piece of information that can be included on the cassette when it is printed.
Operator entry fields are specified with the following information:
Prompt - This field is a text prompt to inform the operator as to the type of
data to enter.
Verify - This field allows the cassette designer to constrain the operator’s
input. By entering a verification specification, the designer can allow only
certain characters in certain places.
Valid characters in the verification specification are::
# - any numeric character 0-9.
$ - any alphabetic character A-Z, a-z.
? - any valid printable ASCII character.
* - any string of 0 or more characters.
[] - denotes a list of characters, any one of which is a valid match for the
next character.
Sample Data - This field allows the cassette designer to place sample data
into the field for testing the layout. This sample data is not used when actu-
ally printing the cassettes.
In addition to these generic operator-entry fields, this window also allows
you to enable editing of the auto-serialization fields. Check boxes are pro-
vided to enable entry of the Quantity Required, Copy Count and Serial Num-
ber. Also, the prompts for these fields are editable.
Erase Operator Fields After Print - This checkbox allows you to clear the
operator entered data after each cassette is printed. This may be useful in
situations where you must ensure that the same data is never printed twice
on a cassette.
To make the settings of the prompt fields (Qty, Copies and S/N) become the
defaults for future new layouts, check the "Make these settings the Default"
checkbox.
