Editing Text
If you want to change the content or format of your label, edit the information before printing.
Positioning the Cursor
The cursor is a vertical line that marks the position on the label where text or other data will be entered.
See “Using the Screen” on page 21.
To position the cursor when editing text, use the navigation keys. See “Using the Keyboard” on
page 24.
Inserting Text
To insert additional text within a line of text:
1. Use the navigation keys to position the cursor at the point where text should be inserted.
2. Enter the text. Existing data positioned to the right of the cursor moves progressively to the
right to make room for the inserted text.
• If a fixed font size is selected, when the end of the line is reached, no more data can be inserted.
To add more data, either press to start another line, or decrease the size of the font. (To
set default font type and size see,
“Font Settings” on page 10
. To change the font attributes or
size for a line of text, see
“Font Size” on page 35
or
“Font Attributes” on page 36
.)
• If the font size is set to
Auto

as more data is added to a line of text, the font size automatically
decreases a point at a time until the smallest font size is reached. When the maximum
character limit is reached an error message displays. To remove the error message, press
.
• Press to start another line of text.

To remove characters one at a time:
1. Position the cursor to the right of the rightmost character that you want to delete. See
“Positioning the Cursor” on page 34.
