If 'D' was selected in the preceding step, enter the desired
data. The Printer automatically computes how many
characters there are room for on the label width specified in
your ALT-P label width and/or label length settings. If there is
not enough room specified in the Row and/or Column
measurements, a 'Not Enough Room For Field Data' error
message will appear.

Creating Labels Using Internal Batch Software
If any of these symbols are entered in the type position,
the printing will either increment or decrement numbers
or letters in the label position specified earlier in this
field. Information entered in the data/prompt field in the
next step will tell the Printer the increment value being
used. When viewing the print label screen , it will ask
'Initial Increment?' or 'Initial Decrement?' The number
entered at this time will increment or decrement each
time a label is printed. The number of labels to be
printed with the same number before an increment or
decrement occurs can be set with the ALT-P command
as described earlier. The default value is 1.
Press the 'C' Key to signify a comment. Any data
entered in the data/prompt position will appear on the
print label screen as a comment. This function is a
useful way to give the operator special instructions,
such as how to load a particular type of media for the
labels to be printed. Comment fields do not affect the
printing of the label.
Press the 'R' Key to request a repeat of the previous
field's data.
Press the 'T' Key to print the time and date.
After entering any one of the above choices, the cursor
will move to the data/prompt position.
