Printing Fixed Length Labels FIXED
Normally, the length of the label is determined by the length of the text entered. However, you may wish to make a label for a specific purpose that is a fixed length regardless of the length of the text.
You can specify a fixed length for a label in 0.250” (6 mm) increments between 0.500” (20 mm) and 40.000” (999.9 mm). The preset fixed length is 1.5” (25 mm). Any change you make to the fixed length setting remains in effect until you change it.
The amount of text that will print on the label determines the minimum length of a label, regardless of the fixed length you set manually. For example, setting a fixed length of 0.50” for a label with 20 characters would have no effect on the label length.
To set the label length
1. Press FIXED .
2. Press | to increase the length. |
3. Press | to decrease the length. |
