User Interface

This section describes the User Interface core screens of your 123 Print project.

The User Interface is where you configure the core screens with which the user will interact on the Datamax printer.

Click the User Interface button on the left- hand side of the main window, or on the menu bar:

1Click Project

The User Interface window is displayed.

By default, the User Interface uses the project description values entered in Section 3.1 – Project Description. It also uses this information to present a User Interface, as shown below, that is appropriate for the display type — text display or graphical display — available on the printer model selected for the given project.
