EDITING THE PRINT STRING
To change a character
Use the
LEFT
(<) and
RIGHT
(>) Scroll keys (Alpha mode must be “n”) to move
around in the print string. The flashing digit indicates the editable character. Once
the desired character is flashing, use the
Alpha
key to change to the Alpha mode,
then use the letter keys to change it. If you need to change it to a character not in
the 3750 character set, use the ASCII number entry procedure. Push
ENTER
twice to store the edited string.
To insert a character
Use the
LEFT
(<) and
RIGHT
(>) Scroll keys to move around in the print string.
The flashing digit indicates the editable character. Insert a new character in front
of the flashing digit by pushing the
NET/GROSS
key. Next input the desired
character. Push
ENTER
twice to store the edited string.
To delete a character
Position the cursor (blinking character) over the character you wish to delete.
Push
CLR
. The remaining characters move over 1 space. Push
ENTER
twice to
store the edited string.
Note: Pushing the EXIT key will exit out of the menu and restore the string as it was. The
changes must be saved with the double ENTER key push or by pushing the POWER key.
To disable the Entire Print String
Position the cursor (blinking character) over the first character in the Print String.
Push
INSERT
to insert a “
º
” (ASCII 255) character at the beginning of the
String. Push
ENTER
twice to store the disabled string. This procedure is more
efficient than using the
CLR
key to delete the entire String, especially if the
String is very long. The 3750 ignores all characters past the first “
º
” it encoun-
ters. To enable the string, position the cursor over the “
º
”character and push
CLEAR
. This procedure can also be used to divide a long print string into smaller
parts by inserting a “
º
” character at discrete locations.
Note: Memory space is always allocated for the Print Strings. There is no benefit to
actually deleting characters past the first
º
.
