Using Simple Serialization
Simple serialization creates a series of labels by 
incrementing one alphanumeric character in the 
pattern. For example, 101, 102, 103, 104, and so on.
To use simple serialization
1. Enter the text for your label.
2. Press SERIAL. A box appears around the first 
character in the label. 
3. Use the arrow keys to move the cursor to the 
position you wish to increment and press OK.
4. Select the amount you want to increment each 
label and press OK. You choose to increment in 
steps up to 10.
5. Select the number of labels you want to create and 
press OK. You can choose to create up to 99 labels.
A new label is added in the display for each label in the 
series.
To print multiple copies of the same serialized 
label, press # COPIES (SHIFT + PRINT) and enter the 
number of copies of each label to print. See Printing 
Multiple Copies on page 24.
Using Simultaneous Serialization
Simultaneous serialization creates a series of labels by 
incrementing two different alphanumeric characters 
at the same time. For example, A-101, B-102, C-103, 
and so on.
To use simultaneous serialization
1. Enter the text for your label.
2. Press ADV.SER. (SHIFT + SERIAL). 
3. Select Simultaneous and press OK. A box appears 
around the character where the cursor was 
positioned. 
4. Select the first character position you want to 
increment and press OK.
5. Select the second character position you want to 
increment and press OK.
6. Select the amount you want to increment these 
characters on each label and press OK. You can 
choose to increment in steps up to 10.
7. Select the number of times to increment these 
characters and press OK. 
A new label is added in the display for each label in the 
series.
Using Advanced Serialization
Advanced serialization creates a series of labels by 
allowing you to select two sequences in the pattern 
and increment them consecutively. 
For example, A-101, A-102, A-103, B-101, B-102, B-
103, C-101, C-102, C-103, and so on.
To use advanced serialization
1. Enter the text for your label.
2. Press ADV.SER. (SHIFT + SERIAL). 
3. Select Advanced and press OK. A box appears 
around the character where the cursor was 
positioned. 
4. Select the first character position you want to 
increment and press OK.
5. Select the amount you want to increment this 
character position and press OK. You can choose to 
increment in steps up to 10.
6. Select the number of times to increment this 
character position and press OK. 
7. Repeat Steps 4 through 6 for the second character 
position you want to increment.
A new label is added in the display for each label in the 
series.
