M710 User Manual 79
6 File Management
A single label or a number of labels can be saved as a file, to be opened and reused at a later date.
Note: Labels using continuous and pre-sized label supplies cannot be combined in the same label
file. All labels in a label file must use the same label part number.
Saving Labels Created on the Printer
You can save labels as internal or external files.
• Internal files are labels stored directly on the printer.
• External files are labels stored on some external device, such as a USB drive.
File Naming Standards
To create a file on the M710 printer, the file must be given a name. Names can be up to 20 characters
long and can consist of letters, numbers, and spaces.
When creating files, remember this rule: You cannot have two files with the same name. If you do, the
most recent file with the name will overwrite the previous file with that name. A one-character
difference in the name creates a different file and will not overwrite a previous file.
Folders
To better organize your data, place similar label files into folders. Similar files could consist of all labels
for a specific project, or all files that use the same label supply, or specific label applications.
Instructions on creating or selecting a folder are within the instructions for saving a file below.
Saving a File
To save labels as a file:
1. Press FN + FILE.
2. Choose Save.
The memory location dialog box displays ONLY if an external source is attached to the printer.
3. If a USB drive is attached to the printer, the printer asks where to save the file. Tap Internal to
save directly to the printer or External to save to the attached external source.
