TOC INDEX

Columns. The number of columns affects the number of knives that can be used. In order to use multi- ple knifes the number of columns must be divisible by the number of knives.

For example a 4 column cut will allow you to use 1 knife, 2 knives or 4 knives. A 5 column cut will only allow 1 knife to be used. A 6 col- umn cut will allow you to use 1 knife, 2 knives or 3 knives.

Manually adjust the columns, change the orientation or reduce the label width to fit more or less columns on the page.

Rows. Make the shortest page possible by decreasing the number of rows on the page. This will mini- mize any problems that might occur if the printed image is stretched or shrunk. The page height must be at least 8.5".

Horizontal Spacing. If uneven spacing is acceptable, adjust the horizontal spacing so there is at least 3/8 inch (.375 in) between labels. Each pinch roller is .375 inches wide. Typically you will

have enough margin on the edges to accommodate these rollers so you will only need to make a gap big enough for the rollers between columns.

5.5 Using Barcodes

The CX1200 will print barcodes in one of two ways.

A.Link to an EPS file with an imbedded barcode. This will print the barcode in pure black if that is the way it has been specified in the image.

B.Link to a graphic with a blank space for the barcode. Add the barcode directly through PTPrint. Follow these instructions:

1.Array your image with the blank space for the barcode using the instructions in Section 5.1 or 5.2.
