Adding Graphics

separately in the printer as graphic files. You can apply
these graphic files to most labels. When a graphic

on the display.

Creating a Series of Labels
You can automatically generate labels by creating a
series. You create a starting pattern, and then set the
increment and count for the series.
You can serialize any number or letter by selecting the
position to be incremented, such as the number 2 in
123 or the letter B in ABC. For example, when the 2 is
selected in 123 and the increment #=3, the resulting
labels would print as 123, 153, and 183.
Letters can be incremented from A to Z and a to z, and
numbers from 1 to 9. When the letter Z or the number
9 is reached during serialization, a letter or number is
added to increase the increment. For example, Az
increments to Aaa, AZ increments to BA, and A9
increments to A10.
Three methods of serialization are available: simple,
simultaneous, and advanced.
