Brady label maker manual Tape color needed, Checking for cut out labels

Tape color needed

The system response to tape color differs depending on the kind of label zyou are printing:

When you are printing a template label and the system needs a different color tape installed to complete the print job, it prompts you with a Color Needed message. Install the required tape, close the printer cover, and click OK to continue the print job.

Hint! The system does not re-check the memory cell flag at this point to see if you installed the correct tape, but continues the print job with whatever tape is now installed. You may find this useful at times when you want to override the color choice dictated by the template or indicated on the label.

When you are printing a custom label, the system always assumes you want to print using the installed tape, and does not check tape

zcolor.

When you are printing groups of labels, for best results, make sure all labels in a group have the same tape supply requirements, including the color requirement. You should address this issue before print time, when creating the label group. See About Files and File Groups on page 9-2 for more information.

Checking for cut out labels

Only 4” (102 mm) wide tapes are appropriate for use with the plotter zcutter feature in the Color & Cut system.

If the cut out extends beyond the maximum allowed length or the width of the tape supply, the printer ignores the cut out area of your label. Your display screen shows a reliable representation of the cut out on your label, so you should correct the size problems before

zproceeding.

If the cut out is narrower than the tape supply, the printer proceeds with the job.

Note: Not all 4” (102mm) tape supplies are appropriate for cut outs: for instance, magnetic tape may not be cut. Check with your supplier for more information.
