Getting Started

This section describes the process of creating a text label with minimal formatting, using basic
editing techniques, and printing the label.

Entering Text

Before entering label text, be sure the media cartridge is loaded and the power is ON.
The vertical bar on the display screen is the cursor and is the starting point for every label you
create using the BMP
position of the cursor. The cursor moves across the screen as you enter data. If you want
another line of text, press [ENTER]

Editing Text

If you have entered some text in error or want to change the content or format of your label,
edit the information before printing.

Inserting Text

To insert additional text within a line of text:
Using navigation keys, position the cursor at the point where text should be inserted.
1.
Enter the text.
2.
Existing data positioned to the right of the cursor moves progressively to the right to make
room for the inserted text. When the end of the line (for the label size) is reached, no more data
can be inserted. The error message "Cannot Fit" displays to indicate that the width of the label
cannot accommodate any more text.
To correct the error, delete some of the text, add another line of text, or decrease the font size.
