Downloading to the Flash Memory using EASYLABEL
EASYLABEL formats can be downloaded to the Printer’s Flash Memory (or CompactFlash card) and the
user will be able to print labels from the Printer without a PC attached.
NOTICE!
The “Use Memory Card” Printer Configuration option in EASYLABEL
determines if the Printer’s Flash memory or a CompactFlash card is used to
store formats. If it is set to ‘No’ then EASYLABEL will use the Printer’s
internal Flash memory. If it is set to ‘Yes’ then EASYLABEL will use the
CompactFlash Card. The “Use Memory Card” is in the Printer
Configuration on the ‘Advanced’ tab. When downloading a database to the
Printer memory, there is a 98 character limit for each database field.
When creating a format in EASYLABEL, be sure the “Memory Card Download” option in the Format
Specifications page is set to YES.
Be sure the printer is attached to the PC only through the serial port or the USB port when formats
are being sent to the printer memory or when there are formats in the printer memory.
After creating the format(s) that need to be sent to the Printer, there are two ways to download
formats to the Printer.
Downloading a single format:
1. At the Edit screen of EASYLABEL click the Printer icon or click File | Print Batch of Formats
from the menu.

5. “Data Receiving” will be displayed on the LCD screen of the Printer.
6. A “Finished downloading format to the memory card” message box will be displayed after the
download is complete. Click the OK button.
