Marker
What it represents
Change marker
Displays when you use the Type Options key or if you select a type style
or type size for a certain section of text. All text following the marker
uses the setting that was selected at the marker until the setting is
changed again. The system inserts a change marker each time you
make a type change; you could have several markers in a row if you
make multiple changes. (If you make multiple changes in a window at
one time, such as in the Type Options window, all changes are stored in
the same change marker.) If you prefer to have fewer change markers,
make your first type change, place the cursor on that change marker and
make your other changes. This stores the changes in one marker.
Sequence marker
Appears if you have pressed the Sequence key to set up a series of
labels. Refer to “Creating sequences” on page 3-26.
Symbol marker
Appears when you have placed a special symbol within the text by
pressing the Graphics key and entering a symbol number. Refer to
“Adding graphics” on page 3-10.
Date/time marker
Indicates that the time and/or date will be printed at that point on the
label. See “Using the date and time option” on page 3-22.

Setup option
What it does
Automatic preview
Allows you to turn the dynamic preview feature On or Off. The default
setting is On.
Dynamic preview allows the system to update your label as you type
from the keyboard, typically when you pause. Sometimes this slows
down your keyboard response time.
If you turn Off dynamic updating, you can increase the keyboard
response speed; that is, it will take less time between when you type a
keystroke in the text area and when those characters appear on the
screen.
You can still get a preview of the formatted label at any time by pressing
the Print Special key. When you press Print Special, you’ll see the
“Please wait” message and the rotating spinner that indicates that the
system is working. Using the Print Special key does not change the
Automatic preview setting in Setup. You can also press the Print Special
key to redraw the preview when the Automatic preview setting is set to
On. This may take a few seconds to update. (If, however, you press any
other key while the system is generating the preview, the preview is
cancelled and you may notice a slight time lag before new characters
appear in the text entry area. )
Note: Automatic preview functions slightly differently in the resident
applications (when you are not running Freeform). Be sure to consult
the appropriate documentation for more information.
Leader/trailer length
Sets the length of the leader and trailer, which is the amount of blank
space inserted at the beginning and end of a label. The unit of measure
is the setting selected for the Length units option (see below). Valid
values are .125 to 2 inches (4 to 50 mm).
Justification
Sets the default justification for text and graphics. Choose Center
(default), Left or Right. You can override this setting at any time by using
the Label Options key. (Refer to “Selecting label options” on page 3-15.)
When you turn the system off and on, the setting selected here is used.
Type size
Sets the type size that is used when the system is first turned on. All text
automatically prints in this type size, unless you change it temporarily.
(See “Changing type size” on page 3-3.) When you turn the system off
and on, the setting selected here is used. The unit of measure is the
Type size units (see below). Valid values are as follows:
0.08 - 8.0 inches (default = 1.0)
8 - 800 points (default = 100)
2 - 203 mm (default = 25)
If you change the Type size units setting, the values shown for the Type
size field automatically change to the new unit values.
Type size units
1-24
System Basics
Sets the unit of measure for displaying type size in the Type Size
window. Choose Inches (default), Points or mm. When you change this
unit, the default Type size value (see above) changes to the new unit
values.
Length units
Sets the unit of measure for displaying label length and other length
values (such as amount of tape remaining). Choose Inches (default) or
mm.
Pause between labels
Controls whether or not the system pauses between labels when
printing multiple labels. Choose Off (default) or On. If you turn this
option on, a message displays after a label prints and asks you to press
a key to continue.
Number of copies
Sets the default number of copies to print for all labels. Enter a value
from 1 (default) to 99. You can change this value for a specific label by
pressing the Repeat key and entering a different value. Refer to
“Printing multiple copies” on page 4-9.
Font
Specifies which font is used when the system is first turned on. All text
automatically prints in this font, unless you change it temporarily. (See
“Selecting a font” on page 3-2.) When you turn the system off and on,
the font selected here is used.
Language
Sets the language in which menus, prompts and messages are
displayed. Choose English (default), French, Spanish, German, Dutch,
Danish, Italian, Swedish, Portuguese, Norwegian or Finnish. The new
selection takes effect as soon as you move the cursor off the Language
option or close the Setup window.
Keyboard style
Sets the type of keyboard layout you want to use: QWERTY, AZERTY
or QWERTZ.
Ribbon color names
Allows you to change the names of ribbon colors you entered when you
installed a ribbon color the system didn’t recognize as described in
“Changing supplies” on page 4-7. Select the color name you want to
change and type a new name. (You cannot change the names of the
colors the system recognizes automatically.) When you install a ribbon
that you previously assigned that name, the new color name will be
used. When the system is upgraded to a new operating system that
includes new colors, the system names overwrite the color names you
entered.
Tape color names
Allows you to change the names of tape colors you entered when you
installed a tape color the system didn’t recognize as described in
“Changing supplies” on page 4-7. Select the color name you want to
change and type a new name. (You cannot change the names of the
colors the system recognizes automatically.) When you install a tape
that you previously assigned that name, the new color name will be
used. When the system is upgraded to a new operating system that
includes new colors, the system names overwrite the color names you
entered.
Upgrade
Allows you to upgrade the operating system, either from a PC or from a
PCMCIA card. Refer to “Checking system status” on page 1-26 for
information about checking your current operating version or board
version.

What to do
Color
Select a color for the text. The default is the first color value
stored in the memory cell of the installed ribbon, or black if no
ribbon is installed.
•
If either a paneled ribbon or a continuous color monochrome
ribbon is installed, you can choose from the entire color
palette. The colors available on that ribbon are listed first, and
are identified by asterisks around the color name, as shown on
the Type Options screen example above. When you print, you
will be prompted when you need to install a different color
ribbon. You can cycle through the color list.
•
If a continous color monochrome ribbon is installed, the color
of the installed ribbon is displayed but you cannot change the
color setting.
•
If no ribbon is installed, when you turned on the system you
were asked to choose whether you wanted to create labels
based on a paneled or monochrome ribbon type. If you chose
Paneled, you also chose the paneled ribbon colors you wanted
to use; those colors are available for selection.
For more information, see “How installed ribbons affect label
composition” on page 2-6.
3-8
Expand/Condense
Choose a number. Text can be expanded from 110% to 200% in
10% increments; the larger the number, the more the text is
expanded. Text can be condensed from 90% to 50% in 5%
increments; the smaller the number, the more the text is
condensed. You cannot change this value if the Condense to fit
option is on and a length for the label has been entered. Also
note that expanding the text may cause the label length to
exceed the maximum supported, and a message will display.
Italics
Choose On or Off (default).
Underline
Choose On or Off (default).
Vertical print
Choose On or Off (default). If there are multiple lines of text,
subsequent lines print to the left of the first line; in other words,
they are printed from right to left when you hold the tape
vertically. If you want the lines to print from left to right, enter the
lines in reverse order starting with the line you want to appear on
the left when you hold the tape vertically.
Character position
Choose Normal (default), Subscript or Superscript.
Label Design
Reverse
Choose On or Off. Off is the Default. On prints the text in the
current area in reverse, using the former background color for
the text and the former text color for the background.
Background color
Choose a background color for the selected area on the label, or
for the entire label if the label contains one area. The available
colors are described in the Color option at the beginning of this
table. Choose Off (default) if you don’t want a background color
used. To print the text in reverse as shown on page 3-6, select
the same colors for the text and background.
4) Repeat steps 2 and 3 if you want to choose settings for other type options.
5) Press Enter when all of the settings you want to use are displayed.

Frame option
What it does
Label
Controls whether a frame prints for the current label and whether
the frame from the previous label will be used for the current
label. Choose Off (default), On or Use previous.
Label line width
Sets the line width for the label frame. Choose Thin (default),
Medium or Wide.
Label frame color
Sets the color for the label frame. The default is the first color
value stored in the memory cell of the installed ribbon, or black if
no ribbon is installed.
•
If either a paneled ribbon or continuous color monochrome
ribbon is installed, you can choose from the entire color
palette. The colors available on that ribbon are listed first, and
are identified by asterisks around the color name, as shown on
the Frame Options window example above. When you print,
you will be prompted when you need to install a different color
ribbon. You can cycle through the color list.
•
If a monochrome ribbon is installed, the color of the installed
ribbon is displayed, but you cannot change the color setting.
•
If no ribbon is installed, when you turned on the system you
were asked to choose whether you wanted to create labels
based on a paneled or monochrome ribbon type. If you chose
Paneled, you are prompted to also choose the paneled ribbon
colors you wanted to use; those colors are available for
selection. If you chose monochrome, see the information in the
previous paragraph.
For more information, see “How installed ribbons affect label
composition” on page 2-6.

Area line width
Sets the line width for the area frame. Choose Thin (default),
Medium or Wide.
Area frame color
Sets the color for the area frame and works the same as the
Label frame color option. If both area frames and label frames
are turned on, the label frame color overrides the area frame
color. This applies even for internal area frame lines.

Bar code option
What it does
Symbology
Sets the bar code symbology. The available symbologies are Code
39, Code 128A, Code 128B, Code 128C and Interleaved 2 of 5.
Height
Determines the bar code height. Enter values from 0.25 to 8.5
inches (default is 1.0) or from 6 to 215 mm. The unit of measure is
the Length units setting. (Refer to “Setting system defaults” on page
1-23.) This height does not include the human-readable text.
Density
Controls the width of the bar code’s narrow elements. This setting
determines the width of the quiet zone (the clear space that
precedes the bar code’s start character and follows the stop
character). The quiet zone width is ten times the density value you
select. Choose 10, 20, 40, 50, 60, 80 or 100 mils.
Human readable text
Specifies whether or not human-readable text is printed with the bar
code. Choose Below (default) or None.
Start/Stop in HR text
Determines whether or not the start and stop characters are printed
in the human-readable text. Choose Off (default) or On.
Check character
Controls whether or not a check character is printed for the bar
code. Choose Off (default) or On.
Human readable text size
Sets the size of the human-readable text. You can select a type
size from the available settings. You can also select the Auto
setting, which scales the text to 25 percent of the bar code height. If
the Human readable text option is set to None, this setting is
ignored. The unit of measure is the Type size units setting. (See
“Setting system defaults” on page 1-23.)

Field
What it does
Tape width
Lets you choose the default tape width for the labeling system.
Document length
Allows you to enter the default label length.
Default color
Lets you select the default tape color for the labeling system.
This information is used to set up a print job if bidirectional
communication cannot be established during printing. If
bidirectional communication has been established, the driver
ignores this setting and sets up the print job according to the
tape actually installed in the system.
Portrait/Landscape
Allows you to choose whether labels will print in the portrait
position (longer than they are wide) or in the landscape
position (wider than they are long).
Setting up the print driver
6-7
Field/Button
What it does
Default ribbon
Lets you choose the default ribbon for the labeling system.
This ribbon is used to set up a print job if bidirectional
communication cannot be established during printing. If
bidirectional communication has been established, the driver
ignores this setting and sets up the print job according to the
ribbon actually installed in the printer. RGB color values for
the colors on the selected ribbon are listed for information only
and cannot be changed.
Add New Ribbon
Allows you to add the names of new ribbon colors to the list of
available ribbons. (This is similar to adding color names on the
labeling system itself; however, names you enter on the
labeling system are not transferred to the PC.) To use this
feature, turn the labeling system on and install the new ribbon.
Click the Refresh button if you installed the new ribbon after
you turned the labeling system on. Colors that are already set
up in the system are displayed in the dialog box. If a color
hasn’t been set up, its Name field is blank and you can type a
name of your choice.
Print colors
Lets you select whether the driver should print colors as
Monochrome (dithered) or Spot color (no dithering). Spot color
(no dithering) is the default and allows multiple-color printing
with both paneled and monochrome ribbons. The
Monochrome (dithered) option allows you to print all colors in
the print job with a single monochrome ribbon; if the job
contains multiple colors, colors that don’t match the installed
ribbon color print as dithered shades of the installed ribbon.
