Types of Data Entry

The following are samples of the different types of data
prompts you'll see in Data Entry.

Entering General Data

When you see a prompt similar to the one below, you can
enter a character for each blank.
DEPT?____
General data fields can have numeric, alpha, or alphanumeric
data.

Entering a Price

At data entry, the price prompt includes the pricing symbols.
Your price prompt may look like this
PRICE?
...or like this
PRICE?
The difference between these prompts is the symbol used for
printing amounts less than $1.00. When you first receive the
printer, the default is U.S. dollar and decimal. The price
prompt that you see depends on how you set the printer.
To select the cent sign for printing amounts less than $1.00,
use Printer Options mode. Refer to section 5, "Using the Cent
Sign."
NOTE: The Printer Option Use Cent Sign must be set to No
for all international pricing except the British Pound.
