Printing forms with Optra Forms
Lexmark’s Optra Forms option uses data directly from your applications and combines it
with printer-resident electronic forms to format and print completed forms such as
invoices, statements, pick slips, labels, and purchase orders. Support for bar codes, spe-
cialized graphics, and other options is included.
The same data can be sent to several remote printers with different resident forms so that
the completed forms can be customized for the specific printer location. For example, the
same purchase order information can be sent to different printers and printed with differ-
ent addresses and logos.
Optra Forms:
Requires no server-based or host-based merge program or software.
Can be used:
With virtually any ASCII text print file from any platform: mainframe, AS/400,
UNIX, or workstation.
Over coax, twinax, parallel, serial, or LAN (TCP/IP).
Generally makes no changes to database applications.
