Current Format
The MtP400 supports five "Formats", or sets of printing parameters that may be selected either through the
control panel or by host application programs. These Formats include printing related features such as Form
Length, Font, Character Pitch, Margins, etc. Each Format also includes the ability to name the Format with a
name such as "Receipt", "Routing Label", or "Shipping Label", etc.
Upon entering Setup as described earlier in "Setup Basics", the Format Menu is the first menu that will appear.
The bottom line of the display shows the Format that is currently selected. If you wish to change to a different
format, press the
Increment Button until the desired Format is displayed.
Note: If you wish to use more than one Format, you must first enable additional Formats. Please refer to
the "Max Format" feature in the "Options Menu" on page 30.
Once the desired Format is displayed, you may do one of the following:
press the
Enter Button to review and/or change the features related to the displayed Format, or
press the
Advance Button to advance to the INTERFACE MENU
Pressing the
Enter Button will advance through the following features for the selected Format in the order

When shipped from the factory, the name for each format will be "FORMAT 1", "FORMAT 2", etc. This
