The underline in the LCD display is called the “cursor”. It is like a pointer which shows your current position and lets you select characters in your text.

The text you create may sometimes be longer than the 11 characters that the LCD display can show at one time. Therefore, the cursor can be moved to show other parts of the text. Pressing

the left cursor key ( ) moves the cursor to the left so that the left side of the text can be

seen and pressing the right cursor key (

) moves the cursor to the right so that the right

side of the text can be seen.

Some format settings are shown by the triangular and square indicators around the edge of the display. The default settings (the selected settings when the power is turned on for the very first time) have been pre-programmed into the machine and represent the most common settings for labels. However, you can design your own label to have any format that you wish. Detailed explanations of the formats can be found on pages 47 through 64.

Now, let’s enter the text for our first example, the simple door label shown below.

The label in this example was made using the enclosed 1/2” (12-mm)-wide tape.
