Getting to Know the Labelmaker

k

Become familiar with the location of the feature and function keys
on your labelmaker. Refer to Figure 1 on the inside front cover. The
following sections describe each feature in detail.

Power

The button turns the power on and off. After two minutes of no
activity, the power is switched off automatically. The last label
created is remembered and displayed when the power is turned
back on. The previously selected style settings are also restored.

You can also press to cancel printing and return to edit mode.

LCD Display

You can enter up to 100 characters and spaces on a label; however,
the display will only show a small portion of the characters.

visible instantly. For example, the
italics and rounded border added to
the text in Figure 5 are clearly
displayed.

Feature indicators appear along the
top of the display to let you know
