Forms Menu Items
Form Name
Form Name FORM 0
Possible Values: Up to 16 characters of A through Z,
Space, 0 through 9
When shipped from the factory, the Form Names will be set to “FORM 0” through “FORM 9”. This name may be changed to any combination of capital letters
Entering a name uses the SUBMENU and VALUE buttons. The SUBMENU button will advance the cursor, a flashing block, which is used to indicate the character that is to be changed. The VALUE buttons will change the character where the cursor is currently flashing. The order of characters that may be selected is “ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ, Space, 0123456789”. Even though the name will be right justified while being entered, it will be automatically centered on the display when not in Setup Mode, so there is no need to try to center it with spaces.
Tractor Path
Tractor Path Front
Possible Values: Front, Center, Rear Center+Rear, Frnt+Cntr+Rear
This item is only available in the FormsMaster 8003se and is used to set the tractor path to be used for the currently selected form. Typically, most forms are only loaded in one tractor path and the value will be set to Front, Center, or Rear.
However, a form can also be set to use multiple paths. This may be desirable when printing long print jobs where a paper out condition needs to be avoided. This is often true if the job is to be run overnight or at a remote and perhaps unattended location. When a form’s tractor path is set to Center+Rear or Frnt+Cntr+Rear, the printer will automatically switch to
