Creating and Printing Labels
The easiest way to create and print labels, is to use the label design
software LabelShop®. You can download LabelShop from the
PrinterCompanion CD that shipped with your printer, or you can
download it from the Downloads page for your printer on the
Intermec website at www.intermec.com.
You can also use Fingerprint and IPL to create and print labels. For
more information, see the Intermec Fingerprint Command Reference
Manual or the IPL Command Reference Manual.
Printing on RFID Media
Media containing RFID tags is slightly thicker where the RFID tag is
located. The slight thickness of this part of the label may affect print
quality. For thermal transfer labels, Intermec recommends using a
high-quality ink ribbon, such as TMX 2304 or TMX 1500.
To achieve the best possible print quality, follow these guidelines:
• After you load RFID media, restart the printer or run a
TESTFEED to let the printer identify the RFID media type.
• If necessary, modify the TAGADJUST variable to make sure that
the RFID labels are properly aligned with the antenna.
• If necessary, avoid printing on the thickest part of the label.
UDC
All > Print UDC Tests the ability of the printer to receive and print
single or multiple user-defined characters (bitmap
graphics) that are sent from the host. This option
prints labels for all the UDCs stored in the printer’s
memory.
Font Contains all the characters in a single font. This
option prints labels for all the user-defined fonts
(UDF) stored in the printer’s memory.
