Label Creation - DuraLabel LabPRO User Manual

LABEL CREATION

Before We Begin...
This documentation describes how to make standard labels. If you are printing RTK
labels, please see the RTK software documentation. The RTK documentation was
installed on your computer at the same time the RTK software was installed.
The examples in this tutorial were tested with Microsoft Word 2000. Some
variations may occur with different versions of Word, or with different word
processors, but the basic principles will be the same. The DuraLabel LabPRO is
®
designed to work with any currently supported Windows software, and should work
with the software packages that you already have installed on your computer.
All portions of this tutorial assume that the DuraLabel LabPRO has been properly
®
installed and is connected in the online mode. Please see the installation guide for
more information before proceeding with this tutorial.
Label Creation With Your Word Processor...
Many have invested in high-end word processing software that is never used
to its full potential. Today's word processors come packed with features and
capabilities that far surpass the average user's needs. Advanced page layouts,
graphic manipulation and printing options are only the beginning of what most word
processors have to offer.
The DuraLabel LabPRO operates off of a standard Windows printer driver that
®
makes the printer accessible from a wide variety of software packages. Many
printers will only work with expensive, proprietary software that is often buggy and
overpriced. With the DuraLabel LabPRO you will be able to use the software that
®
you are familiar with, and get the most out of an investment you've already made.
In this tutorial we will show you how to use Microsoft Word to create and print
custom labels and signs. If you have further questions concerning your software
package, or label creation in general, please refer to the contact information on the
back cover of this tutorial.
