Printing Barcode Labels 

+

.

The printer can generate two types of barcodes: 
CODE-39 and CODE-128. You can only print a 
barcode on 3/4” (19 mm) label tape.
The barcode will print horizontally along the label 
with the text in small print underneath the barcode. 
You can optionally add text before and after the 
barcode.

To create a barcode

1. Enter the text you wish to appear before the 

barcode on the label. (Optional)

2. Press +

.

3. Use the arrow keys to choose 

CODE-39

 or 

CODE-128

, and press  . 

4. Enter the text for the barcode between the  

barcode symbols ( ) and press  .

5. Enter any text you wish to appear after the 

barcode. (Optional)

6. Press .

Printing Options

You can choose to print multiple copies of the same 
label, print serialized labels, or print a combination 
of both.

Printing Multiple Copies

You can print up to 99 copies of the same label at 
one time. When printing multiple copies, a dotted 
cut-line is printed between each label.

To print multiple copies

1. Press +

.

2. Press the   arrow to increase the number of 

copies to print. The default is 2 copies.

3. Press the   arrow to decrease the number of 

copies (maximum is 99).

4. Press   or 

 to begin printing.

You may notice a brief pause in printing 

between each label for more complex formats.
When printing is finished, the number of copies to 
print returns to 2.

Advancing the Label Tape

The default leader space for all labels is 
approximately 5/16” (10 mm). To add additional 
blank space to the beginning or end of your label, 
you can feed the tape in 0.25” (6 mm) increments.

Serializing Your Labels

You can print serialized labels numerically or 
alphabetically. Numbers can be incremented from 
1-99 and letters from A-Z. 
You can serialize any number or letter by placing 
the cursor under the position to be incremented, 
such as the number 2 in 123 or the letter B in ABC. 
For example, with the cursor under the 2 in 123 
and the increment #=3, the resulting labels would 
print as 123, 133, and 143.
When the letter Z or the number 9 is reached 
during serialization, a letter or number is added to 
increase the increment. For example, Z increments 
to AA and 9 increments to 10.

When a space is present in a string to be 

serialized, only the numbers or letters after the 
space are serialized. 

To serialize your labels

1. Enter the text for your label.
2. Use the arrow keys to move the cursor under the 

letter or number to serialize.

3. Press .
4. Enter the number of labels you wish to print and 

press   or 

 to begin printing. Enter 1-99 for 

numbers and 1-26 for letters.
