Text Editing
You can set up the label printer so it either overwrites exist-
ing characters with new input, or inserts new input between
existing characters. Note the following example.
Example
Existing text: ABCDEFGHI
Cursor location: E
New input: XXX
Overwrite
Result: ABCDXXXHI
Insert
Result: ABCDXXXEFGHI
To switch between overwrite and insert
1. Press FUNC and then FORM (SET UP) to display the
SET UP menu.
2. Use u and i to highlight “INPUT” and then press SET.
3. Use u and i to highlight the setting you want (“IN-
SERT” or “OVERWRITE”) and then press SET.
• The CAPS indicator on the display is highlighted when
overwrite is turned on. The CAPS indicator appears nor-
mally (unhighlighted) when insert is turned on.
