• Keystrokes page 4-50: A combination of keys that when typed together result
in a special or accented character. Keystroke types are:
•
Alt Gr
(Alternative Graphic)
:
A modifier key used to access alternate
characters, represented on keys with a third or fourth symbol on the right side.
Key accessed also depends on the state of the “Caps Lock” key and the type
of toggle it performs.
•
Alt Gr Lock:
A key that toggles the keyboard between access to Alt Gr and
non-Alt Gr mode for specific keys.
•
Caps Lock:
A key that toggles the keyboard between upper-case and lower-
case modes for all alphabetic keys, but has no affect on other keys.
•
Shift:
A modifier key used to access alternate “upper” characters on keys.
Key accessed also depends on the state of the “Caps Lock” key and the type
of toggle it performs.
•
Shift Lock
: A version of caps lock that affects all keys as shift does.
•
Label
: The area on the display where text, graphics and barcodes are located. A
discrete “page” or unit of output.
•
Media
: Substrate on which labels are printed. Includes “tape” (continuous) and
“label” (die-cut).
•
Menu
page 1-3: A display of options that are provided to a user. There are several
types of menus (e.g., pop-up, cascading, pull-down, moving-bar, etc.).
•
Mirror Print
page 5-68: Output that is suitable for reading in a mirror, or through
the back of the label.
•
Object
page 4-37: Discrete data, graphic or barcode element on a label that is
movable as a unit.
•
Print Energy page 5-70:
Defines how much heat is applied to the printhead when
you are printing a label. As you print, heat applied to the printhead elements causes
the ink to transfer to the label material as is passes under the printhead. The higher
the print energy, the more ink is transferred to the label (i.e., the higher the heat on
the heat element). Therefore, if your printing is spotty, you may want to increase
the darkness of the print. However, if your ribbon is sticking or tearing during
printing, you should reduce the darkness of the print.
•
Print Offset
page 5-71: A value that will move the image from its "nominal"
position slightly in one direction or another. Adjust Offset is typically used to do a
fine adjustment of the printed image on a die-cut label, or to move the image slightly
closer or further from the edge of a continuous supply.
•
Proportional Sizing
page 4-60: Uniform scaling of an object or text. Object
maintains its size in both the horizontal and vertical direction.
•
Non-proportional Sizing
page 4-60: Non-uniform scaling of an object or text.
Object size is distorted in the direction being sized.
