Supply Layout Grids ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
A Supply Layout Grid contains measurement markers. These
markers help you accurately position information on your
label.
Decide whether you want to design formats using English,
Metric, or Dot measurements. You can choose from the
following three Supply Layout Grids:
✦ English
The English grid, shown
to the right, is measured
in 1/100 inches.
✦ Metric
The Metric grid is
measured in 1/10
millimeters (mm).
✦ Graphic
The printer uses dots to
print images on a label.
The printhead has 192
dots per inch.
Use the Dot Layout Grid if you prefer to design formats
according to dot measurement.
If you want to use supply layout grids, a sample of each is
in Appendix E, "Format Design Tools."
