Set custom

Check this option to set a custom label width. Enter

width

the new width in the entry field. The value entered

 

must be less than the maximum printable width

 

appropriate for the installed tape, because unlike the

 

default width, this value indicates the total output

 

width, with no margins applied. This means that the

 

printable area will equal the amount you specify

 

here. (See Checking Sizen page 11-11for more

 

discussion on this topic.)

 

With the Monocolor and the Multicolor systems, the

 

label prints with dashed lines that indicate the

 

label’s dimensions.

 

With the Color & Cut system, the label is cut around

 

its outside dimensions.

 

Note: Objects previously placed on the label keep

 

their original size when you resize a label using this

 

feature. You must manually resize any objects that

 

no longer fit within the new label size. For

 

information on resizing objects, see Sizing

 

Objectsn page 7-27.

 

This option is not available when Match tape

 

width is enabled. When Match tape width is

 

enabled, the value in this field shows the current

 

width of the label for display only.

 

 

Auto calculate

Check this option to accept the length the system

length

automatically sets, based on the contents of the

 

label. If you have a paneled ribbon installed, the

 

maximum label length is set to the panel length.

 

Hint! When this option is enabled, your label

 

automatically prints with the objects centered on the

 

length dimension of the label. The system achieves

 

this by calculating the space between the leading

 

edge of the label and the first object on the label,

 

then adding that same amount of space after the last

 

object on the label.

 

When this option is selected, the Set length option

 

is unavailable (grayed out).
