Data Output Format
Each line in a print job can contain up to 22 characters (up to
20 printable characters plus two control characters). The first 6
characters, called the “data header”, identify the subsequent value.
You can suppress the header under menu item 7.2 in the
“Printouts” menu; in this case, the print job has up to 16 characters
(up to 14 printable characters plus two control characters).
Examples:
+ 235 pcs Without header
Qnt + 235 pcs With header
Display segments that are not activated are output as spaces.
Values with no decimal point are output without a decimal point.
