4610 Printer Feature Personalization Each terminal can have its own extended terminal options file, or one or more terminals can use the extended terminal default file (EAMP4000). The application provides this default file. You can change the default file during personalization, but you should not delete it. You can also add, change, delete, or print option files for specific terminals. When adding a new options file, use a previously defined file as a model to save time. You must create a set of options for each terminal in a unique group. You will need a set of extended terminal options worksheets for each unique group of terminals. Number each set to correspond to the terminal numbers to which they apply. The only shared set of options is terminal 000. If you do not specify an extended options record for a terminal, the terminal 000 extended options record is used. If a terminal finds its own set of options, it ignores the 000 set of options.
Changing Terminal Options This section describes the IBM 4610 Printer Feature terminal options and should be used in conjunction with the IBM 4680-4690 Supermarket Application: Guide to Operations.

Figure 5. Duplicate Receipt Printing
Number of Duplicate Copies This option controls the number of duplicate customer receipts to print at the end-of-transaction. A duplicate receipt is an exact copy of the original receipt. The number specified in this option is the number of extra receipts printed after the original receipt. Setting the Number of Duplicate Copies to 0 specifies that only the original receipt is printed. Setting this field to n specifies that the original receipt and n duplicates duplicates are printed. You can print up to 8 duplicates. The original receipt is either printed during the transaction, transaction, or postpost-printe printed d at the end-o end-of-tran f-transaction saction depending on the settings of other options. If the number of duplicate copies is set to zero, the second option (Automatic Duplicate Print) is hidden because it does not apply.
Reprinted Reprint ed Receipt Receipts s In this version of the PRPQ you can enable an option to reprint one or multiple receipts at the end of a transaction by using a key sequence. There are three requirements that must be met before you can use this post-print option. First, you must enter a “9” in the Number of Duplicate Copies field. Second, you must either have APAR IR36937, which defines the function used or integrate the user code provided in User Exit 6. (See “Reprint Receipt Using 15 SIGNON” on page 29 for the user code.) Third, you must select post printing.

Override Out of Paper Error This option allows a manager to override an out-of-paper error on the customer receipt station. If this error is overridden by a manager at the terminal, then any subsequent out-of-paper errors from the customer receipt are ignored and the application is allowed to continue until the current transaction is completed. This allows a terminal with a faulty printer to complete its current transaction without holding up the customer.

IBM 4610 Printer Stations Width Options The 4610 printer station width options are currently the only options specific to the 4610 printer. These customer and document insert station width settings are the default characters-per-line for the two printer stations. This is accomplished by setting the inter-character spacing for resident font A of the IBM 4610 printer. The settings of 38, 40, 44, 48, and 52 map to font inter-character spacings of 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 for the customer receipt station and 3, 3, 2, 1, and 1 for the document insert station. The settings 38, 40, 44, 48, and 52 correspond approximately to 13.6, 14.5, 15.5, 17, and 18.5 characters per inch, respectively, on the customer receipt printer. The settings 38, 40, 44, 48, and 52 correspond approximately to 15, 15, 16.7, 18.7, and 18.7 characters characters per inch, respe respectivel ctively y, on the document inser insertt station station..

Handling Terminal Memory Requirements Due to the multiple receipt and post-printing features of the 4610 printer, additional terminal memory is reserved when the terminal is loaded. The amount of additional memory used is approximately equal to the amount of memory required for the summary log array. Hidden options affecting the processing of the summary log still apply. For more information on hidden options, refer to the IBM 4680-4690 Supermarket Application: Planning and Installation Guide . The software for the IBM 4610 Printer Feature uses an additional 20 KB of memory for code space at the terminal. The amount of memory used for data varies but is not less than 40 KB per head data space. This is because the post printing buffer is allocated based on the amount of free memory available and will vary from system to syste system. m. It is strongly suggested that this feature be used with the Big Memory Model version of the 4680-4690 Supermarket Application to ensure that enough memory is available for buffering.

Specifications for Combining Like Items and Grouping By Department The 4610 printer options have separate fields for controlling the format of the post-printed receipt; one field allows you to combine identical items, and another field allows you to group items by departments. The following rules are used to show how different types of transactions will be handled with these two options. In this release of the PRPQ you may select one or both of these options.

If an item has a price that is overridden more than once each override entry will appear separately on the receipt even if the adjusted price is the same.
Type 2 UPC’s (Imbedded Prices) Type 2 UPC’s with matching item code prices will not be combined together.
Weighted Items Under no circumstances will weighted items (items scaled at the front end) be combined. Each item will be listed separately on the receipt.
Department Key Items Department key items will be combined if they have the same UPC code and the same price.
Price Required Items Price required items whose prices do match will be combined into one listing on the receipt. If some price required items have different prices they will be listed separately.
Miscellaneous Sales If miscellaneous sales items are entered with identical prices, they will be combined on the receipt. If they are entered with different prices, they are listed separately.
Item Exceptions Items entered under any exception condition (for example, tax exempt or food stamps) should not be combined with items that have the same UPC code and were entered normally.
Pricing Methods Items of pricing methods 0 and 1 with promotional pricing of quantities greater than one, will be combined. Due to the complexities of pricing, items entered with pricing method 2 through 5 will not be combined and will be listed individually on the receipt.
Chapter 1. Planning and Installing the 4610 Printer Feature

Linked Items PLU sale items with a linking record will be combined. On the post-transaction, printed receipt, the print line for the linking record will follow the primary item entry and will use combining as well.
Coupons All coupons are to be listed individually on the receipt. There will be no combining of coupons even for the same item and the same reduction amounts. This allows the customer to easily verify that all coupons have been processed.
Group by Department If the option to group by department is selected, items on your post-transaction, printed receipt are sorted by item department number in ascending order.

made, the check printing process begins. The check is inserted face down with the bottom edge of the check at the right side of the document insert station. At this point, the account number may be entered or, optionally, the account number may be read from the check. Franking proceeds immediately following input of the account number. If the check face is to be printed, the check is then automatically flipped and the face of the check is printed. Otherwise, the check is ejected from the document insert station. This new check handling sequence occurs automatically whenever a 4610 printer is attached and the 4610 printer feature is installed. The order of the sequence may not be altered; however, printing on the face of the check may be skipped, either by setting an Enhanced Printing Option available with the 4610 Printer Feature or by pressing Clear at the prompt described above. When check face printing does not occur, the check is not flipped. For more information on Enhanced Printing Options, see the 4680-4690 Supermarket Application: Planning and Installation Guide .
Partial Receipt Print on Demand This function allows the operator to print a partial receipt on demand during a sales transaction. This allows the operator to review a receipt during the transaction and discard it. Items on the receipt are listed in the order in which they were scanned or keyed with no post printing options performed. A partial receipt can be printed multiple times during a sales transaction.

Voids If you are using post printing with Group Department Sales or Separate Sales, Returns, and Coupons and you choose to show voids on the receipt, the voids are printed at the bottom of their respective sections.
Transaction Types that Stop Combining/Grouping and Separating of Items If you are using post printing with any of the enhanced printer options enabled and receive a partial tender, the combining, sorting, and separating of the additional items is stopped because they cannot be distinguished from each other and the receipt recei pt will become diff difficult icult to under understand. stand. If a transaction discount is taken at the end of an order and no more items are sold, all the options you have selected are used. However, if a discount is given and more items are sold, the combining, sorting, and separating is stopped, and the remaining items after the first groups are printed. If the user sends a Line Type 29 (Print as Passed) to the printer routine with any of the enhanced options selected, the combining, sorting, and separating of items is again stopped because the print line cannot be handled or placed.

This routine allows lines written to the customer receipt printer station to be buffered in the customer receipt print buffer. It has the following definition: SUB ENABLE.BUFFERING DISABLE.BUFFERING
This routine prevents lines written to the customer receipt station from being buffered. It has the following definition: SUB DISABLE.BUFFERING BUFFER.RECEIPT.LINE
This routine causes a line to be written to the customer receipt station using the WRITE command to be buffered. It has the following definition: SUB BUFFER.RECEIPT.LINE(PRT.LINE$) PUBLIC Note: It is recommended that the base print routine TSPREC01 be used to write lines to the customer receipt. In this case it is not necessary to call BUFFER.RECEIPT.LINE. Only if the user writes directly to the printer, using the WRITE statement, will it be necessary to call this routine. CR.BUFFER.GUILLOTINE
This routine inserts guillotine cuts into the customer receipt buffer. It has the following definition: SUB CR.BUFFER.GUILLOTINE PUBLIC Note: If the base routine DO.GUILLOTINE.CUT is called, it is not necessary to call this routine.
Duplicate Receipt/Post Printing Buffering To handle post-printing and multiple receipt printing, lines written to the customer receipt are buffered in memory for the duration of the transaction. To reduce the amount of memory occupied by this buffer and to optimize performance, data compression is used by the buffering mechanism. In addition, each line keeps an index into the TLOG array so that data such as item code and department may be easily retrieved for each item. Data Structures
The customer receipt print buffer, buffer, CR.PRIN CR.PRINT T.BUFFE .BUFFER$, R$, is impleme implemented nted as a one-dimensional string array. Each entry in this buffer holds information for a single line that is printed on the customer receipt during the transaction. Entries start at array index 1 and work upwards. Each entry consists of the actual data that is printed on the receipt, together with several items of control information for the line. In order to use as little memory as possible in the storage of actual receipt text, this text is held in compressed format, using a run length encoding method to more efficiently store consecutive space characters that are embedded within the text.

Under this method three or more spaces occurring together are encoded by replacing them with the character CHR$(255) followed by the binary representation of the number of characters.

The CONTROL field is used to control various aspects of printing. The following controls are defined: v
v
whether whether the line represents a ’sortable’ ’sortable’ item. An item is considered sortable sortable if it is an ordinary sales item, a return or a void. Lines such as headers, partial tender lines and non-sales lines are not sortable. whether whether the line is a partia partiall tender line. This informatio information n may be used by the Post Printing feature if sorting has been selected. In the event of a partial tender being performed at the terminal the partial tender line does not print until the end of the receipt.

v
Printing feature to group sale and return items into different sections. whether whether to ignore this line during during sorting.
The LINEFEEDS field indicates the number of line feeds that follow the line. The TLOGINDEX field identifies the index into the TLOG array, SL.STR$, which relates to the current print line. Note that the information in the TLOG array is not used by the multiple receipt printing feature, but may be used by the Post Printing feature, where modifications may be required to the order in which the information is presented on the receipt. The print buffer is dimensioned during the initialization phase of terminal loading. Its size is determined by the amount of free memory in the terminal (using the FRE function) between the maximum and minimum limits of 1000 lines and 50 lines respectively. Whenever the contents of the buffer are printed, the store headers are printed first, followed by the buffered lines and finally the store trailers followed by a guillotine cut or line feeds (depending on how this option is configured).

Terminal Sales User Exits The following user exits may be used when programming with this feature: Exit TSUPEC01 - Before Processing the First Entry in a Transaction Suggested Global Variables for Update : CR.PRINT.BUFFER$
Comments: If you want to add lines to the receipt between the header lines and the first item it may be done here. Exit TSUPEC02 - After a Customer Checkout Transaction is Completed Suggested Global Variables for Update : CR.PRINT.BUFFER$
Comments: You can add lines between the last line of a transaction and the trailer lines here. Exit TSUPEC20 - Before Writing a Line to the Cash Receipt Suggested Global Variables for Update: CR.PRINT CR.PRINT.BUFFER$ .BUFFER$
Comments: Most writes to the customer receipt for post-printing and multiple receipt printing should be performed here. Furthermore, print lines may be modified here including print lines issued during post-printing; that is, print lines from the receipt buffer.
WRITE FORM The IBM 4610 printer does not support the WRITE FORM command. Any user exits that attempt to write to the customer receipt or document insert stations using this command cause the printer to return an ’Unknown printer command’ error message. Instead, you should make appropriate modifications to test for a 4610 printer and then use the appropriate WRITE or WRITE FORM statement depending on the result. You may use the variable PRT4610.ENABLE, which is declared in the include file EALP4VAJ.J86. This variable is non-zero if a 4610 printer is attached to the terminal, and 0 if any other printer is attached. Refer to the 4690 OS Application Interface Specification for 4610 Printer for more information regarding 4610 printer commands.
Saving and Restoring Fonts Fonts are saved in an array and restored from the array to ensure that they are not inappropriately set. If other fonts are desired, you should use the PRT4610.SAVE.FONT.AND.SPACING routine to save the currently loaded font, and afterwards use the PRT4610.RESTORE.FONT.AND.SPACING routine to restore the font.

If you want to use the base print routine to print to the receipt but do not want the line to be buffered use the call DISABLE.BUFFERING. Note: Buffe Buffering ring is automa automatically tically enabled and disabled depending depending on whethe whetherr sales or non-sales lines are being written to the receipt. Be aware of where your lines are being printed so you can restore the buffering flag to the correct value after the lines have been written.
If you want to write a line to the receipt that prints immediately, even with post printing enabled use a WRITE statement; this line is not buffered unless BUFFER.RECEIPT.LINE is called. If you do not go through the base print routine but want to submit a line to post printing, BUFFER.RECEIPT LINE must be used as indicated above. Also, ensure that the line is not printed immediately by setting up the print line and passing this to the buffer routine without using the WRITE statement first. If post-printing is not enabled, the WRITE statement is necessary for the line to be written on the original. If the line is added other than through the base print routine, it is not considered eligible for sorting or cleaning and will be printed on the post-printed receipt in the position it would have originally appeared.
