In the following example, data is entered into four non-printable
fields and merged to form field 5, and is then printed as a bar
code. See "Merging Fields" in Chapter 4 for more information.
Field Data Field Type
1 20374 Non-printable
2 339 Non-printable
3 8 Non-printable
4 15 Non-printable
5 20374339815 Bar Code
Each non-printable text field requires a separate definition.
Syntax D,field#,# of char p
D1. D Non-Printable Text Field.
D2. field# Unique number from 0-999 (0-99 for 9403/9805) assigned to
this field.
D3. # of char Maximum number of characters in this field: 0-2710 or (0-100
for 9403/9805).
Example D,4,20 p
Defines a non-printable text field (field #4) with a maximum of 20
characters.
Defining Constant Text Fields
A constant text field is a set of fixed characters that prints on all
labels. Define each constant text field separately. This field is
not assigned a field number, but is counted as a field (keep this in
mind, as the printer allows a maximum of 1000 fields or 100 for
9403/9805 printers per format). The characters in this field
cannot be changed by batch data. Field options do not apply to
constant text fields. Mark the pivot point of your field. This will
vary, depending on how your field is justified.
