Setting the Default Font and Font Style
When the printer is turned on, it automatically uses the font Univers
Condensed in a Normal style. If you have the itch, you can change
these settings to reflect your own preferences. For example, if Palatino
Bold is your favorite font and font style, you can program the
PowisPrinter™ to always default to Palatino Bold. Here’s how:
• From the User Settings Menu, press the right arrow key, and you’ll see:
• If you press 4, the list of PowisPrinter™ fonts appears. Select the font
you want as a default by pressing the corresponding number.
• If you press 5, the list of PowisPrinter™font styles appears. Select the
font style you want as a default by pressing the corresponding number.
When you have made your selection, the printer confirms your choices:
4. SET DEFAULT FONT 5. SET DEFAULT STYLE
Now each time you turn on your printer, the machine will assume
these settings. Note this will not affect text until the next time the
printer is turned on, or you select the Default Formats MENU item.
C. Other Keys
• Use the REPEAT key when you want to print the same title more than
once. Here’s how:
a. Press the REPEAT key.
b. Enter the number of times you wish to print the same title, and
press ENTER.
c. Insert a strip.
d. When that strip has printed, insert the next strip (the printer will
prompt you). Continue until you have printed the desired number of
strips.
If you wish to stop, press ESC at any time.
• Press the HELP key to get help at any time.
• Escape (ESC) acts as a sort of undo key. If at any time you want to go
back, or if you accidentally hit a key you didn’t mean to hit, just press
ESC.
• Press the BACKSPACE key (
3
) to delete the previous characters you
have typed.
• Press the EJECT key to eject a strip that is in the machine.
• Use the ARROW keys to move the blinking cursor.
• Press the CLEAR key to delete both lines of text (Figure 12).
• Use the 2nd SHIFT key to access extended characters and symbols.
