Task Management 
Configuring a Printout
You can configure the printout at two places; for example you can have the  
printout for basic weighing differ from all the other applications.
  In System Settings (Menu)  In this menu, you define the basic settings. Previously created tasks will not be 
affected by modifications to the basic settings.
  Creating Tasks  This is where you can specifically modify the user-defined settings for any task.  
You will be routinely prompted for the printer settings with every new task you  
create and can be modify them.

Setting Options for Printouts
 
h
  The options for printouts depend on the how the interfaces and their operating 
modes are configured. So if not all options are available, check the interface  
configuration.
The configuration of standard printout parameters defines the following:
  Interfaces for Printer Output  Peripheral ports (Com A), US/PC (Com B), optional interface (Com C), Ethernet 
(Com D)
  Protocol (Operating Mode)  Depends on the interface: Print, SBI, xBPI, SICS
  Output  Depends on the operating mode Single printout or automatic (not with printer), 
with/without stability
  Printout Criterion  Manual without stability, manual with stability
  Format Autoprint  22  characters for applications, 16  characters for raw data
  Standard Data Output  Standard 1 (measured value only), Standard 2 (measured value and date/time),  
Standard 3 (date/time, weight block (N,T,G) and dotted line
  GLP-compliant Printout  Turned off/on for Cal./adjust./Always On
  Print Event  Defines which event should trigger a print job.  
The selectable print events depend on the selected application.  
For basic weighing: P key, start or end task, calibration/adjustment result; 
for calculating applications: Additionally, initialization and result 
For logging applications: Additionally, component and evaluation 
  Print Elements  The elements to be printed also depend on the selected application. You define the 
print elements for each each event, e. g. date and time, dotted line, measured value 
and the sequence they should be printed in, etc.
  Tare after Printing:  Turn off, on (auto. tare after printing)
