Printing 11-13
Note: Because a reliable value for the maximum supported cut length has not
been determined, the printer will
not perform a check prior to printing, to
warn you if the label contains cut objects longer than a specific length.
When you create a label with the supply installed that you intend to print with, if
the label length is longer than the supported print length of the installed ribbon,
you’ll be able to see it on your display screen, as shown in Figure 11-9.
Hint! Keep in mind that other changes besides color can affect the length of the
label. For example, changing the font size or adding an object may
increase the length of the text.
Also keep in mind that in some cases, the printer shows your label as truncated on
the screen (as in Figure 11-9) and when you choose Print, it prints the label
truncated as shown.
In other cases, the printer displays your label at the length you set it or as set by the
template you used to create the label, but when you choose Print, displays a
message and does NOT print the label until you correct the length condition.
For example, if you open a file with a label with a set length, the label is displayed
with the correct length on the screen. If the label is too long to print on the current
supply, you’ll see a message telling you so, and you’ll be returned to the Editor
window. You won’t see the label length truncated on the screen, as shown in
Sample of label too long for installed ribbon. on page 11-14. You then have the
option to:
z Install a longer panel ribbon
z Install a continuous color ribbon
z Shorten the label length
In this case, you must make one of these changes, or you will not be able to print
this label.
