Creating Multi-Line Labels

The number of lines you can print on a label depends on the width of the label you are using:

•Maximum of five lines on 3/4" (19 mm) and 1” (24 mm) labels

•Maximum of three lines on 3/8" (9 mm) and 1/2" (12 mm) labels

•Maximum of one line on 1/4" (6 mm) labels

To create a multi-line label

1.Type the text for the first line, and press Enter. A

new line character is placed at the end of the first line in the display, but will not print on the label.

2.Type the text for the second line.

The display shows the line on which you are currently entering text. The example below indicates that the second line is the current line on the label.

Use the arrow keys to move between lines.

Using Mixed Formats

You can apply different fonts and styles to the text on a label by dividing the label into blocks of text or pages. Each page is separated by a page break.

The number of lines that can be added to a page is determined by the label width. You can add two page breaks per label. Alignment, underline, box styles, and background patterns cannot be mixed on a label.These styles are common to the entire label.

To add a page break

1.Enter and format text for the first page.

2.Press PreviewInsert .
