Defining Batch Data Fields; Using Special Characters In Batch Data - Paxar TC6037PR Reference Manual

D e f i n i n g B a t c h D a t a F i e l d s
Batch data fields should be sent in field number order. Use continuation
fields for large amounts of data. If you are using N (New) in the batch
header, you must list all fields with your data in sequence. If you are using
U, you need to list only those fields and data that changes from the last
printed batch.
Syntax
field# Identifies the text, bar code, or non-printable text field in which to insert the
following data. Range: 0 - 999.
"data string" Provides the actual information to appear in fields. Enclose in quotation
marks. Length: 0 - 2710 characters.
C Optional. Identifies information to be appended to the data string.
"continuation" Optional. Provides the actual information to be added to the batch packet.
Enclose in quotation marks. Use this option to break up longer fields.
Length: 0 - 2710 characters.
Example
Defines a batch data field. "Size 12" prints in field #1, a blank line appears
in field #2, "Blue and this would be appended" prints in field #3.

There are two ways to specify special characters in batch data:

Use a tilde with the decimal ASCII equivalent.
