6. Label Creation
This section describes how to create labels using Microsoft
®
Word. Variations may occur
among different versions of Word, but basic principles are the same. The DuraLabel
9000 is designed to work with any currently supported Windows software and should
work with the software installed on your computer. Both Microsoft Word 2003 and
2010
*
were used to describe procedures in this Guide.
*
NOTE: Navigation may vary depending on your version of Word, but the tools will
be the same.
The information in this section assumes your printer has been properly installed and is
connected in the online mode.
6.1 Label Creation with Your Word Processor
DuraLabel 9000 printers operate off a standard Windows driver that allows access to a
wide variety of software packages.
6.1.1 USING TEMPLATES
IMPORTANT! If you do not follow this step, you will need to create all labels
from scratch.
The DuraLabel 9000 provides a variety of templates you can install from the installation
CD startup screen. Click on Templates & Symbols and follow the instructions. When
installation is complete, templates and symbols will be accessible from a folder titled My
Documents\DL9000 Templates & Symbols.
To use a template, open Microsoft Word, select Open and browse the DL9000
Templates & Symbols folder. Any template you choose has been set up to print correctly
on the DuraLabel 9000 printer with minimal augmentation.
