Using the Internal Label Design Function
The Cassette printer uses an internal label design feature to convert normal text to a
printable label. The data can be sent to the printer using several methods. Data can be sent
to the printer as a text file and data can be typed in from a keyboard.
The integrated barcode scanner can scan barcodes and send data automatically to the scan
bar at the top of the home screen. This data can also be used within software menus and
also by the internal label design software to create printable Cassette labels.
The label is designed using several processes within the Data Menu that convert the data to
label image. A simplified example of the process is shown below. Each step will be further
explained in this section of the operator guide.
Delimited data is sent to the software via the
barcode scanner, on-screen keyboard or
Generic Text Only Windows driver. The data
is captured in the scan box.
The data is delimited by the internal data translator.
The translator converts the delimited text and
imports it into the Cassette printers’ internal
database.
The template imports data from the database and
organizes the data onto a ¼ x 1-inch label design.
The items can be moved around and the font size
adjusted to achieve a perfect label.
