Using Simple Serialization

where the cursor was positioned. 

3. Use the arrow keys to move the cursor to 

the character you want to increment and 
press .

4. Select the amount you want to increment each 

label and press 

You can choose to increment in steps up to 10.

5. Select the number of labels you want to create 

and press 

You can choose to create up to 99 labels.

A new label is added in the display for each label 
in the series.

Press 

 

 to print multiple copies 

of the same serialized label. See 

Printing 

Multiple Copies

 on page 16.

Using Simultaneous Serialization

Simultaneous serialization creates a series of labels 
by incrementing two different alphanumeric 
characters at the same time. For example, A-101, B-
102, C-103, and so on.

and press 

You can choose to create up to 99 labels.

A new label is added in the display for each label in 
the series.

Using Advanced Serialization

Advanced serialization creates a series of labels by 
allowing you to select two sequences in the pattern 
and increment them consecutively. 
For example, A-101, A-102, A-103, B-101, B-102, B-
103, C-101, C-102, C-103, and so on.

cursor was positioned.

increment and press 

.

character position and press 

You can choose to increment in steps up to 10.

6. Select the number of times to increment this 

character position and press 

7. Repeat Steps 4 through 6 for the second 

character position you want to increment.
You can choose to create up to 99 labels.

A new label is added in the display for each label in 
the series.

Printing Options

You can choose to print multiple copies of the same 
label, collate the copies, pause to cut between labels, 
advance the label, and adjust the print contrast.

Printing Multiple Copies

You can print up to 99 copies of the same label at 
one time. 

To print multiple copies

1. Press 

 

+ .

2. Press the 

 arrow to increase the number of 

copies to print (maximum is 99). The default is 
2 copies.

3. Press the 

 arrow to decrease the number 

of copies.

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.
