If necessary, change the characteristics to better suit the country or area where you intend to use your labels. Paper Cutter Disable If your printer is fitted with an optional paper cutter, it is automatically enabled at startup, but you can turn it off if you like. -
Page 7: Layouts
The printer can also be fitted with some other external device, like a scanner. Before it can be used, you must inform the software to which communication port this device is connected. Now the printer is prepared and you can start the work of editing and printing labels. Editing Layouts Layouts is the generic term for the various types of fields that contain the information on the label, ticket, tag or strip. -
