If your design is larger than the default 103 x 300mm, you will get this warning message:
Click

and make sure to verify the dimensions of your design.
In case your design is larger than default 103 x 300mm: the SMS-R1 has printing and cutting
capability of 103mm wide (across tape direction) and up to 2.5 meter long.
You can set the desired label length in Windows: go to
Windows Control Panel

Devices and
Printers

SMS - R1
printer >
Printing preferences

Label length
value higher,
then restart AutoCAD (this requires driver version 19d or newer).
You can safely set a high length value

A question will pop up regarding
Changes to a Printer Configuration File
:

Preferably
choose the
second option
to save your custom settings to a PC3 config file.
Choosing option 1 results in having to set these settings each time again before each print job as
the settings will be lost after sending the print job to the printer.
During our testing we have made 2 profiles: 1 for Portrait and 1 for Landscape so it is easy to
switch without having to keep adjusting settings.
