Save Screen
The save screen is accessed through the main menu by pressing the
File
soft
key. The save screen lists the label designs stored on the printer. The soft keys
allow the user to save the current label design, open previously saved label
designs, and delete label designs.
TEXT/IMAGE AUTO-SIZE
Auto-size automatically adjusts the size of the text and images to fill the entire
label area (whether the label consists of one line or many lines). Auto-size
enabled is the printer’s default setting.
Individual text characters, groups of text characters, and images may have auto-
size enabled or disabled, even if they are located within the same line. Auto-size
is denoted by an “A” immediately to the right of the number indicating the
current text or image size in the status bar on the edit screen and the size screen
(see pages 13 and 14).
The “A” also appears on the size screen in the label layout area (see size
screen image on page 15).
u
nOte:
Do not get this “A” confused with the “A” that represents CAPS lock
on, which is on the far left side of the status bar.
A one line label with auto-size enabled would appear like this:
A two line label with auto-size enabled appears like this:
Auto-size can be disabled by manually changing the size on the size screen.
CELLS
A cell represents text or images that have similar attributes to one another on
the same line. A label design may consist of one or many cells.
New cells are created when text attributes within a line are changed. Each image
is represented by a single cell. Cells are seen on two screens: the edit screen
and the size screen. The following examples illustrate how cells work:
Cells As Seen On the Edit Screen
The first line consists of two cells. The characters of the first cell “JOHN SMITH,”
share the same attributes: bold, and auto-size. The characters of the second cell,
“Receiving Dept.” are italicized and set to size 24 Point.
