as shown in Figure 9.

Adding International Characters
The labelmaker supports the extended Latin
character set using RACE technology. Similar to
using a mobile phone keypad, if you type a letter
multiple times within a very short time, you will
scroll through variations on that letter.
For example, if French is selected as the language
and you repeatedly press the letter a, you will see
a à â æ and so on through all the variations
available. The character variations and the order in
which the variations appear depend on the
language you have selected to use.
Currency Symbols
The currency key $ also uses RACE to scroll
through a number of currency symbols:
€ £ $ ¢ ¥
The order these symbols appear depends on the
language you have selected.

Printing a Fixed-Length Label

wish to make a label for a specific purpose that is a
fixed length regardless of the length of the text.
You can specify a fixed length for a label in 0.1”
(2 mm) increments between 1.5” (40 mm) and
15.0” (400 mm). The preset fixed length is 4.0”
(100 mm). Any change you make to the fixed
length setting remains in effect until you change it.

5. Press to set the fixed length.
6. After printing the label, repeat step 1 and turn
Fixed Length OFF; otherwise, all subsequent
labels will print with this fixed length.
