Working with Labels 6-31
Auto
calculate
length
Check this option to accept the length the
system automatically sets, based on the
contents of the label. If you have a paneled
ribbon installed, the maximum label length
is set to the panel length.
Hint! When this option is enabled, your
label automatically prints with the
objects centered on the length
dimension of the label. The system
achieves this by calculating the space
between the leading edge of the label
and the first object on the label, then
adding that same amount of space
after the last object on the label.
When this option is selected, the Set length
option is unavailable (grayed out).
Set length Choose to set your own length for a label,
and to enter the new length in the entry
field.
Note: The minimum length label you should
print is 2 inches or 51 mm. If you set a
shorter label length, the printer still
delivers a two-inch long label, unless
you are printing in Supply Saver
mode. See Minimum length on
page 11-13 for more information.
When Set Length is selected, the Auto
calculate length option is unavailable
(grayed out).
If you have a paneled ribbon installed, you
can set the label length to less than the panel
length, but you may not increase the label
length to beyond the limits of the panel. If
you do, the label length defaults to the panel
length.
