The values in field 4 must follow certain guidelines to be included in the column
summation. Dollar signs and commas must be properly located, no more than two
numbers after a decimal point, and no alpha characters. For example:
Valid Formats Invalid Formats
“$1,234,567.89” “$1,23,”
“4321234.56” “432.123”
“5,321” “34 test”
“$.89” “12$123”
If the value in field 4 is in an invalid format, that line will have a question mark to the right
of the field and it will not be added to the total. Under these circumstances, the total will
print with the notation “Fields flagged with ‘?’ not included in total.”
If the total exceeds $4,294,957,295.99 the printer will print an error message “Total
exceeds maximum value” instead of the total.
Print Audit Report
This prints an Audit Trail Report. The Audit Trail Report is also part of the command set
so the Audit Report can be printed and purged via the host application. As a security
control mechanism, purging is only possible after entering a valid password.
The printer can store approximately 6,000 records or checks for each megabyte of flash.
If the Audit Report feature is activated, and the printer’s flash memory becomes full, an
error condition occurs. The printer will stop printing and prompt the operator to print and
purge the Audit Report memory. See the following section for purge instructions.
