Using Data Entry Keys

The 21-key keypad, provided on the 9402 printer, contains
data entry keys. These data entry keys enable you to enter
alphanumeric data or symbols offline.

Keypad with Data Entry Keys

The 21-key keypad has 10 numeric keys, 4 symbol keys, a
shift key (

5

), and a clear key (

9

). You can enter numbers,

letters, and a variety of symbols (including punctuation).

Entering Numbers

You must be in numeric mode to enter numbers. If a carat
appears in the upper right corner of the printer display, press

5

to remove. If no carat appears in the upper right corner,

you are ready to enter numbers.

To enter numeric data, press the alphanumeric key that shows
the number you want. The screen displays the number, and
the cursor moves to the next position in the field. This is also
how you enter a period (.) comma (,), dollar sign ($), or pound
sign (#).

NOTE: The computer keyboard does not have a

5

key. If

you are using a computer keyboard instead of the
keypad, use the shift key. It acts as a

5

key.
