32 ESim for the PC4 and PF8 Printer Programmer’s Reference Manual
Example
The form “TEST” edited in the previous chapter can be retrieved
and printed from any ASCII-sending device using this sequence:
The question mark (?) following the FR command is required for
printing any fields edited in Form Edit mode that contain

containing variable input are omitted from the printout.
Variables and counter start values must be defined, either by
programming or by user input.
