Showing commands in printed output

For most jobs, if the User-Defined Key and other printer commands show up on the printed output, then the User- Defined Key has not been assigned properly. You can, however, assign it ªimproperlyº if you want your output to show the commands. This is done by changing the assignment to a character other than the one used throughout the rest of the document.

Example You have created a document using the asterisk (*) as the User- Defined Key, but want to change it to an at sign (@) before sending it to the printer. To change =UDK=* at the beginning of the document, enter:

=UDK=@

Converting the User-Defined Key to a printable character

While a character is serving as the User-Defined Key, it cannot be printed. If you want to use the User-Defined Key as a printable character at some point in a document, you can do so by selecting a new User-Defined Key.

As far as the printer is concerned, any time it receives the sequence =UDK=, the character immediately following the second equal sign is the new User-Defined Key.
