• Typeface: Select the style of lettering. The font types (Brady Fixed Width and Brady Alpine
give you the option of displaying a zero with or without a slash (0 or Ø) through it. In
addition, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean fonts are available. Additional fonts cannot be
downloaded to the printer.
• Auto: Automatically sizes the text to fit in the label as you type. The current font size is shown
in the upper left of the touchscreen while editing a label.
•
Font Size: (Unavailable if Auto is selected.) Change the size of the text. This sets the default
font size. When editing a label, you can change the font size on a per line basis.
•
Attributes: Select one or more of bold, italic, and underline. This sets the default attribute.
When editing a label, you can change the attribute for any character.
•
Units: Choose whether to show the font size in points (a standard unit used in most word
processors) or millimeters.

6. Press to dismiss the menu. Alternatively, use the navigation keys to navigate to the
next setting that you want to configure. If the label already contains text or other elements, the
font change does not take effect until all data in the editor is removed. See “To clear all the
data on a label or labels:” on page 40.
Note: You can use the FONT button to change the size and attributes for a line of text while editing
a label, but the values specified here in the SETUP menu will continue to be used as the
default on new labels and areas. (For information about areas see “Labels and Areas” on
page 43.)
Software for Creating Labels
In addition to creating labels on the printer, you can use labeling software. Install labeling software on
your computer or mobile device, set up the connection to the printer, then use the software to design
labels and send them to the printer. (Refer to your local Brady website for other Brady software. Be
aware that older Brady labeling software may not automatically detect the printer and that the
information in this manual is based on the software listed below.)
• Use the Brady Express Labels app on a mobile device. (Wireless printer model only.)
• Use Brady Workstation software on a desktop or laptop computer.
