Consider other important items on the receipt. Add the
date and time of the sale, the ID number of the cashier or
salesperson. Is the action a sale, return, price adjust-
ment, or a sales quote?
Next, the itemized bill of sale contains a SKU or UPC
code, a product description, and a price. Consider using
a fixed width font, or a monospaced font, for this section.
A monospaced font keeps the characters an even width
for every character. For example, an ‘I’ is the same width
as an ‘M’ character. The resident fonts 0 and 7 are
monospaced as well as other monospaced fonts avail-
able with the Label Vista software package.
Finally, at the end, many companies like to put a slogan
or advertisement of coming events. Be certain to put a
few CR/LF characters at the end after your final line to
ensure that the bottom of the receipt does not get torn off
through a printed part of the receipt.
