6.0 Print Formatting
The 720i provides print formats that determine the format of the printed output when the PRINT key is pressed, a
KPRINT serial command is received, or when truck weigh-in or weigh-out operations are performed. Supported
print formats are: GFMT, NFMT, ACCFMT, SPFMT, SETPNT, TRWIN, TRWOUT, ALERT, and AUXFMT1—
AUXFMT20. Additionally, two header formats, HDRFMT1 and HDRFMT2, can be inserted into any of the other
ticket formats using the <H1> and <H2>formatting commands. The particular ticket format used for a given print
operation depends on the indicator configuration (see Table 6-2 on page 54) and the particular operation
performed.
Each print format can be customized to include up to 1000 characters of information, such as company name and
address, on printed tickets. You can customize the print formats using the
Revolution III ® configuration utility or
serial commands.
6.1 Print Formatting Commands
Table 6-1 lists commands you can use to format the 720i print formats. Commands included in the format strings
must be enclosed between < and > delimiters. Any characters outside of the delimiters are printed as text on the
ticket. Text characters can include any ASCII character that can be printed by the output device.
