Creating Fixed-Length Label
Use this procedure to create a label where the continuous-media label length is
set, not variable. Once selected, the printable area shown on the label is reduced
by the amount of the leader/trailer required for the installed supply, so that the total
label length output matches the selected length.
Note: The label size for die-cut media is already set and cannot be adjusted.
To create a fixed-length label:
1. From the Home page, select Menu .

Note: You can also access the Label Size & Orientation box by touching the
Label Size text at the bottom of the screen.

length is 120 in. (3048 mm).
