ENTERING THE DATE IN THE MESSAGE
The message can contain the date. This can be accomplished by pressing the
”Date”
key while in ”Message Entry” Mode
and while the cursor is
positioned in the place in the message where the date is desired. The desired date
format must be selected before inserting the date into the message. Return to
”Command Mode” and then the F3 menu to format the date.
ENTERING THE OFFSET DATE IN THE MESSAGE
The message can contain a ”Sell by” code with the date in either letters or
numbers. Be sure to format the date in the form that is desired before inputting
the date offset in the message. To enter the date offset into the message, in the
”Message Entry” mode
, press the ”Product Delay”
key.
Notice the date format will be entered into the message. Since the ”Product
Delay” key was pressed and not the ”Calendar” key, the printer will know to
move the date ahead to the number of days selected when the date offset was
input into the system.
ENTERING THE TIME IN THE MESSAGE
The message can contain the time. This can be accomplished by pressing the
”Time”
key while in ”Message Entry” Mode
and while the cursor is
positioned in the place in the message where the time is desired. The desired
time format must be selected before inserting the date into the message. Return
to ”Command Mode” and then the F3 menu to format the time.
