Original FCR

The original FCR contains the entries

  • language [D]

Since this is a pre-printed form, the page margins must be adjusted accordingly.

The entries are made in 1/1000 cm. (1000 is 1 cm.)

The form code is [FB_FCR_K].
This form is used if the number of copies is > 0.
The settings for the page margins apply here, too.

FCR blank pages (attachment)

The form code is [FB_FCR_B].
Starting with the 18th line of the FCR, all further prints are forwarded to an alternative printer.

FCR with layout

The form code is [FB_FCR_L].
This form does not need to be configured.
The FCR with layout is meant for output via fax and email.
