length of characters an “ITEM” and “QTY” can be.

Define 1” and look in
Window 4

This will force the screen to look like the screen show below, there are four (4) printable
lines on the screen of the HT580 (the 0,1,2,3 will
not
be printed on your final application,
they are meant as a visual assist of the 4 printable lines):
In
Window

, click on “Label Define 1” and then select the “Value” tab in
Window 4

We want to allow the “Items” to be Scanned-in or Keyed-in, so we must check “Scan”
and “Keyboard”. The
Input Type
can be letters (upper- or lower-case) and/or numbers.
The
Input Length
can be from 1 to 20 characters. We don’t select 0 as the min length
because we don’t want to allow blank/empty data. Do the same for “Text Define 2” but
select keyboard only as the
Input Mode
,
Input Type
of numbers and Min 1, Max 7. See
