This function allows you to specify which fields to print and in what order. Note that

for Selection” column and the selected fields in the “Fields Selected” column.

highlighted, it is selected. To jump from one column to the other, use the
right/left arrow soft key.
4. To send a highlighted field from the available column to the selected column,
use the Select soft key. To remove a highlighted field from the selected
column, use the Delete soft key.

and save changes.
