Rice Lake TransAct 2.0 - Manual (Page 120)

119 Appendix
A sample default ticket format is
shown at right.
If you would like your printed
tickets to appear differently, you
can create and save formatted files
for other ticket styles. You can
create these files outside the
TransAct program, using any text
editor (such as Notepad or Dos
Editor). We recommend using
Notepad, which comes with
Windows and is found in the
Accessories window of your
Program Manager. You can create
different ticket formats in Notepad,
saving the ticket format files in the
same folder as the original
default.gtk and using the .gtk suffix .
After creating the files, you can select any .gtk file as the new default ticket
type for any account, using the Ticket Type dialog box in any Customer
Account table. That account will then default to the ticket style you have
selected. However, if you only want to occasionally print a different ticket
type for an account, you can also specify a new .gtk file during a weigh
transaction. Then only that transaction will print a ticket with the new style
you have selected. When that account comes up for another transaction, it
will return to the default.gtk file you select in the Customer Account table.
In order to use printer commands, you must connect the printer to a parallel
port (LPT1 or LPT2). Set the printer device type within TransAct to Direct
to Printer Port. Select Admin… | Preferences | Ticket Printer Port from
