You can send multiple batches for any format previously loaded into the printer. To do so, send the format to the printer, then send as many batches as you want to print data on that format.
This allows you to send multiple batches without sending a new format with each batch.

When sending multiple batches for one format, you can
When you leave out any field number that was specified in the preceding batch, the data used in the preceding batch will print on following batches until new field data is entered.
For example, batch 1 below prints a date in text field T01. Since batch 1 and batch 2 are printed on the same day, batch 2 can leave out field T01. Since T01 was defined in the preceding batch, it will automatically print in batch 2.
Batch 1: | Batch 2: |
|
{ B12,1,0,1,1,0,C; p | { B12,1,0,1,1,0,C; p | |
T01;12/31/90 p |
| T02;Stock #52014 |
T02;Stock #43768 |
| T03;Sprinkler } |
T03;100’ Hose } |

If two fields overlap, do NOT use this feature. If fields overlap, you must send the format before each batch.
