PRINT DATA (BROWSE MODE) 

After data has been entered in Collect mode, you can print the entered
data as it appears on the form by going to Browse mode.  Then locate the
records you want to print and, as each record is displayed on the screen,
press PRINT.

For example, order number 10004 contains five records:  the order
heading, three repeating order lines, and the order total.  To print the
content of this order on the line printer, go to Browse mode, use PREV 
REC to locate the first form in Order Number 4, then press PRINT. This
causes the first record with the entered data to be printed.  Then press
NEXT REC to display the next record and press PRINT to print this record.
Although the next record is shown appended below the first record on the
screen, only the record itself is printed on the line printer.  Continue
displaying records, and printing each record until all records in the
order are printed.

Remember that the printed records are not actually listed on the line
printer until you press EXIT to terminate ENTRY.

The line printer listing prints one record per page.  The listing is
shown in Figure 8-12 and Figure 8-13.
