Formatting Labels and Areas
Reverse
The Reverse function switches the foreground and background colors of data on a label, based on the
color of ribbon and label supply in the cartridge. For instance, black lettering on a yellow background, if
reversed, would print yellow lettering on a black background.

be applied to a barcode or to an individual line of text.
