CREATING DATA LISTS
The Data Tool
The data tool is used to create printable data lists in the VIPER™ LS6. The data tool is very useful for customizing labels because it allows up to one hundred unique labels to be created from a list of data. With the data tool, users can input, store, or transfer custom lists of data.
