NOTE on PC Settings:
Most applications allow you to change these same printer driver options from their "Print" and/or "Printer Setup" screens. Some applications such as NiceLabel save your settings with the label, others use settings only for the current print job just sent to the printer.
Paper Size
If you are using NiceLabel, this setting is adjusted during the label setup wizard. If you are using a program other than NiceLabel you will need to set this to the dimensions of the your label. Keep in mind that the dimensions are always rela- tive to the width and height of the actual label in the printer. Orientation of an image on the label should not change this setting. See Section 6 for minimum and maximum label sizes.
Orientation
There are two settings for orientation, Portrait and Landscape. If your text and graphics print left to right or as shown on the screen, select portrait . If you wish your printing to rotate 90 degrees from what you see on the screen so it is printing horizontally, select landscape as your orientation. Remember, this does not change the width and height Paper Size. It is only a tool for viewing a label upright on screen that will be printed sideways on the printer.
Portrait Landscape
Print Quality
There are 4 levels of print quality in the driver. The lower the Quality, the faster the print. Quality 1 provides the fastest print available while Quality 4 provides the best quality. It is recommended that you experiment with the different levels when designing your label to find a good balance between print quality and print speed.
