C. 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. NiceLabel auto matically 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 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 correspond to the Page/Label Size set in the driver. If you have set your page size to 4" x 4" but you 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.
