a short message will appear on the display which must be answered before
the printer can start up.
The Message to appear on the display is defined using this menu, and other
attributes may be defined at the same time to provide greater assurance
that inappropriate information is not entered at the start of a print run.
The following properties are available for editing:
Input Type:
Select AlphaNumeric to enter letters and digits, or Numeric to
enter only numerical values.

The maximum number of letters is set here. For example, if it is
known in advance that all answers consist of a maximum of eight digits,
then only enter a maximum of eight digits.
Name:
The name of the variable is entered here. Selecting the Name tab
will call up a keyboard with which to key in the desired name.

already used variable is changed, the items in which the variable
is used must be manually updated.

Check this box to store the entered data for reuse. When next
prompted, this data will auto-fill the input box.

example the data contained in a barcode can be linked and included as text
within the same message.
