Setting up the System Defaults

Creating and Printing Labels from a PC

Setting up the System Defaults

The System Setup function is used to set the printer default settings. Default
values are common settings that are pre-assigned to make the system usable as
soon as power is applied (e.g., date and time are set to your local date and time).
By changing the defaults, you can set the settings to your specific requirements.

To change setup functions use the following procedures. Any defaults set here will
stay in effect even when power is removed from the printer, and during upgrades.

To change system default settings:

1.

Select

Menu

.

2.

In the menu list, select

Setup

. The Setup menu displays.

3.

From the

Setup

menu, choose any option(s) to change the system
