Using the Front Panel

If you have no access to equipment for communication through the EDP port or are working at a site where such

equipment cannot be used, you can use the PFORMT menu (see Figure 6-1 on page 55) to customize the print

formats.
Using the PFORMT menu, you can edit the print format strings by changing the decimal values of the ASCII

characters in the format string.

Lowercase letters and some special characters cannot be displayed on the

320IS Plus

front panel (see the

ASCII character chart on Table 8-4 on page 64 and Table 8-5 on page 65) and are shown as blanks. The

320IS Plus

can send or receive any ASCII character; the character printed depends on the particular ASCII

character set implemented for the receiving device.

Using Revolution®

The Revolution configuration utility provides a print formatting grid with a tool bar. The grid allows you to

construct the print format without the formatting commands (<NL> and <SP>) required by the front panel or

EDP command methods. Using Revolution, you can type text directly into the grid, then select weight value

fields from the tool bar and place them where you want them to appear on the printed ticket.
