Quick Label; General Label - Dymo XTL 500 User Manual

Quick Label

The Quick Label is a simple, text-only label. No properties need to be set to get
started. As you add or delete text, the length of the label will change automatically
to fit the text.
One text object is already included on the label by default. Barcodes, images, and
shapes cannot be added, and you cannot create multiple labels using serialization.
All text formatting can be applied to this label. Text formatting applies to all text on
the label. To apply text formatting to only some of the text, create a general label.
Quick labels can be printed on any type of continuous labels.
The label properties you can set are:
Label outline Yes - Show label outline.
No - Hide label outline. (Default)
Leader/trailer Yes - Blank space is equal at the beginning and end of the label. (Default)
match
No - No blank space added at the end of the label.

General Label

The General Label editor has no special formatting or templates associated with it.
To create a custom design, you can add text, images, shapes, or a barcode. See
Working with Objects on a Label on page 31 for more information.
By default, one text object is available in the center of the label.
This type of label allows text box, barcode, image, and shape objects.
Text size and style apply to the currently selected text. If no text is selected, the
size and style apply to all the text in the text box.
Use serialization to automatically create a series of labels. See Creating a Series
of Labels on page 35.
General labels can be printed on both continuous and pre-sized labels.
