Creating long labels
The number of characters and symbols you
can enter is limited, but you can use the
following techniques to create longer labels:
■
Select multiple copies of your label to
create a longer label with repeated text.
See page 17 for instructions.
■
To add length to one end of the label
(unprinted), press
+
to feed about
an inch before printing. Press these
buttons repeatedly to add more length.
Repeat this step after printing to add
length to the other end of the label.
■
Press the spacebar to add blank spaces
between printed areas.
■
Using a larger font will make the label
longer.
Note:
You’ll see a
l
back arrow when you
get to the character limit. You may have to
add or delete spaces to make the label fit.
