Storing and Recalling Files

Frequently used label text along with its formatting can be stored in the memory and easily recalled so that it can be edited and quickly printed. When each text file is stored, it is given a number to make recalling it easier. Up to 10 text files or approximately 2,000 characters can be stored in the memory.

Since a copy of the stored text file is recalled when the Recall function is used, the text can be edited or printed without changing the originally stored file. When a file is no longer needed or more space is necessary, the Clear function can be used to delete text files.

Storing label text

1Press m.

2Press u or d until STORE is displayed.

3Press n.

4Press u or d until the file number where you wish to store the text is displayed.

5Press n.

If the maximum number of characters has already been stored, the error message “MEMORY FULL!” appears in the display. If this occurs, an existing text file must be deleted before the new one can be stored.

If a file is already stored under the selected file number, the message

“OVERWRITE?” appears in the display. To overwrite the stored file with the new one, press n. To go back and choose another file number without overwriting the text file, press b, and then select a different file number.
