Understanding How the Printer Supports Label Elements

other labels, but here are some printing issues you need to know
about to make the design process easier.
Understanding Label Printing Issues
Label Element
How Does the Printer Support It?
Fixed text
The printers support printer resident fonts or
TrueType fonts. Since TrueType fonts are
sent as graphical bitmaps, the print speed is
slower.
Variable text
The printers support only printer resident
fonts.
Lines/Boxes
The printers support both.
Bar codes
The printers support fixed and variable. Use
printer bar codes only.
Graphics
The printers support fixed graphics only.
Polygons, circles,
rounded rectangles
The printers print these elements as graphics.
Oblique lines
The printers print these elements as graphics.
OLE objects
The printers print these elements as graphics.
RFID tags
The printers support fixed and variable data.
Defining Variable Data
The variable text fields in your label should use the same variable
field names used in the database. Variable field names can
contain spaces such as “Part No.”
