11-22 Printing Tab Options
Supply saver option
Supply saver printing, which is sometimes called multiple up printing,
saves tape and ribbon by arranging labels together in the print queue
and printing multiple labels on the same page.
This option saves tape because it vertically stacks labels that are
smaller than the full width of the tape, so that the full width of the tape
is used (see Figure 11-11). It also saves ribbon because it groups labe ls
to print within a set of ribbon panels.
On the Monocolor and Multicolor systems, the printer adds dashed lines
to show you where to cut the labels apart. On the Color & Cut syst em,
the system cuts out the individual labels.
Supply saver applies only when:
You are printing multiple labels. (They do not have to be multiple
copies of the same label, as long as they meet the size criteria.)
and
The labels are smaller than one-half of the printable area (to stack
vertically)
or
The labels are shorter than one-half of the length of the panel (to
group within a panel length), when you have paneled ribbon
installed.
(See Checking Length on page11-12 for information about paneled
ribbon restrictions.)
