However, if you want to define a fixed field that can be copied into another field, use Option 1.

1.Define your text or bar code field on the Format Worksheet as shown in Chapter 2, "Designing a Format." Remember:

Use only with Option 5 when defining fixed characters for the entire field.

Write F in box T4 to specify a fixed field length.

Make sure the maximum length in box T3 is the same as the number of characters you will place in the field.

2.Find Option 1 on the Format Worksheet. This option specifies fixed characters. For information on how Option 1 works, see "Defining Fixed Data."

3.Write the exact characters for this field in box R3, after 1. Place quotation marks around the phrase, like this:

"MONARCH MARKING"

Notice that spaces in the phrase are fixed characters.

Make sure you enter the fixed characters in the same row as the text or bar code field to which they apply.

4.Find Option 5 in the same row on the Format Worksheet.

5.Write N in box R3, after 5, so the printer will not prompt the operator for this field.
