To serialize a multi-zone label:
The printer allows you to perform basic alpha or numeric serializations within any one zone in a
multi-zone label. Note the following:
•
The serialization cannot occur within more than one zone per label.
•
When performing multiple-zone serialization, the zone you are in when you select
[
SERIAL
]
is the zone that will serialize.
•
Ensure that all text and characters are entered into all zones before pressing [
SERIAL
]
from the zone (and specified character) you want serialized, as this will start the
serialization and printing process.
•
If you must back out of the serialization process, press [
FUNCTION
]
+
[
CLEAR/ESC
]
to return to the zone you were last in.
To create multi-zone labels containing serialized data:
1.
Enter text into all zones on the label.
2.
Go to the zone you wish to create the serialization in and using the arrows on your keypad
(right/left) highlight the character you want serialized.
3.
Press [
SERIAL
].
The screen prompts you to enter the number of times to increment the
serial number (or character).
4.
Press [
ENTER
]. The screen prompts you to enter the number of
copies
of the serialization
to print.
The following example shows
2 copies
of a numeric serialization in Zone 2 (of two zones) when the
serialized character is 3:
5.
Enter the number of copies.
6.
Press [
ENTER
].
