Using the Printer

NOTE: You must set the Printer and Page Setup by clicking on these

buttons each time you print. You must perform these steps each time

you print even if what you see on the preview screen appears correct.

D. CREATING BARCODES ON A MAC

You can integrate barcode printing into any application that

can print to the printer by using Mac Barcode Maker. Mac

Barcode Maker can be purchased from their website at

www.barcodeformac.com
This application was tested using Adobe Illustrator. Follow the

instructions that are included with the application to use it

with your program. Their website does offer a fully functional

trial version which integrates an "EVAL" stamp into all of the

barcodes it produces. Buying the application will cause the

"EVAL" stamp to be removed.
Other barcode integration software is available but was not

tested for compatibility with the printer.

E.

PRINTING

FROM OTHER APPLICATIONS

Because the printer installs as a standard Windows or

Macintosh printer driver, it will print from virtually any

Windows 2000/XP or Macintosh OS 10.x application. All you

will need to do is create a custom page size the equivalent of

your label stock size with margins set to "0". Then create your

label and click File > Print. Select the Color Label Printer as

your printer and select the number of copies. Click OK and

your printer will print your labels.
