1 INTROD UCTION This manual describes the software interfaces supported by the FormsPro 4000se, FormsMaster 8000se and PrintMaster 850 series printers. It is written for a programmer who will be developing software for the printer, and contains information not nor mally needed by a printer operator/user. Basic information on printer operation (sett[...]

Introduction 2 Printer Model Descriptions and Key Features The Printek FormsPro 4000se, FormsMaster 8000se and PrintMaster 850 series printers are high speed, heavy duty serial dot matrix printers designed especially for print ing upon hard to print forms. Such forms are often not printed adequately by other printers. The printer is also designed t[...]

Introduction 3 Changing Form s/Tractor Paths As mentioned above, Printek FormsPro 4000se, FormsMaster 8000se and PrintMaster 850 series printers have ten complete sets of forms parameters. These different parameters, or forms, may be selected either from the front panel or with escap e sequences. In the FormsPro 4503se and FormsMaster 8003se series[...]
