General Guidelines for Legend Lists.

Use the following guidelines for legend lists:
•
Legends for legend lists are created following the same guidelines as non-list legends.
•
All style features accessible through the Setup Menu are available when creating legends
for lists.
•
Individual legends within legend lists can have different styles.
•
You cannot save serialized legends to a list.
•
The maximum number of legends you can save to a list will vary depending on how much
memory the legends in your list use. The amount of memory used by a legend is
dependent on certain variables such as the number of lines in the legend and the number
of characters per line. For example, if your list contains legends that all have five lines
and eight characters per line, you could save approximately 800 total legends to memory.
If your list contains legends that all have one line and eight characters per line, you could
save over 2,700 total legends to memory.
•
A maximum of 10 legend lists can be stored in the printer at any one time.
