The User-Defined Label allows a template to be populated by variable data (via the printer’s
control panel or a USB QWERTY keyboard). The template is a stored label format, where fields
delimited by an ampersand (&) become variable.
The printer will prompt you to enter the variable field data. For example, the stored label format
could contain the data 19131423443&ENTER NAME&
Afterward, when recalled from memory, the display will indicate the variable field: ENTER NAME

•
Variable data can be any part of the DPL format - font ID, positioning, etc.
• No error checking will be performed.
• Supports .dlb, .dpl, .prn, and .txt file types.
