Designing and Printing Labels
QL-800 User Guide 33
3 If necessary, you can select a printing orientation. Orientation is often set within the
design application. However, if you cannot select an orientation in the design
application, choose from the following options:
• Portrait - Select this option if you want to print the label in a portrait orientation
on the label roll.
• Landscape - Select this option if you want to print the label in a landscape
orientation on the label roll.
4 If necessary, you can rotate the printed image 180 degrees by choosing Rotate
180°.
5 If necessary, you can print the image in a mirrored orientation by choosing Mirror
Image.
6 Select the page management options.
• Stitch - Choose this option to print with no gaps between labels. This option
should not be enabled when using gap media.
• Buffer - Choose this option to process print jobs completely before sending
them to the printer. This results in no pauses during printing.
• Mask Optimization - Choose this option to apply mask optimization. If you
observe image noise in printed labels, try turning off this option.
7 If necessary, you can select a printing quantity. Print copies are specified within the
application before printing. However, you can override that value here, or use this
setting if the application does not provide a setting.
8 Select the type of material the label will be printed on.
9 Select a label size from the list.
Note: If necessary, you can set up a custom label size to meet your needs.
10 Select a printing speed.
11 Choose OK.
Setting up a Custom Label Size
You can add and modify custom label sizes in the printer driver.
Note: Driver instructions apply only to printing via third party design applications. If you
are using Custom QuickLabel Omni, this process is not required.
