Printing from a PC
D. PRINTING FROM OTHER PROGRAMS
Since this printer uses a standard Windows printer driver you
can print from any application you would like. There are just a
few things to remember that will make it much easier.
1. Set the Page/Label Size in the Driver.
BarTender
automatically prompts you for the size of the label that you
are using. When printing from any other program you
must do this manually. Before you print, simply set the
custom page size just as you would set print quality in the
printing preferences. In the example below from Illustrator
the label size is 4" x 4" so the custom page size is set to 400
x 400 (displayed in .01 inch units).
2. Check the image or document size.
The image size or
document size should match to the Page/Label Size set in
the driver. If you have set your page size to 4" x 4" but your
image is actually 5" x 3" the printer driver will
automatically shrink your image to fit inside the 4" x 4"
label. The result is that the actual printed label is 4" x 2.4".
Avoid this by setting your page size or image size to match
the label size.
