Printing Fixed Length Labels

Normally, the length of the label is determined by
the length of the text entered. However, you may
wish to make a label for a specific purpose that is a
fixed length regardless of the length of the text.
You can specify a fixed length for a label in 0.250”
(6 mm) increments between 0.500” (20 mm) and
40.000” (999.9 mm). The preset fixed length is 1.5”
(25 mm). Any change you make to the fixed length
setting remains in effect until you change it.

The amount of text that will print on the label

determines the minimum length of a label,
regardless of the fixed length you set manually. For
example, setting a fixed length of 0.50” for a label
with 20 characters would have no effect on the
label length.
To set the label length
1. Press .
2. Press to increase the length.
3. Press to decrease the length.
4. Press .

Printing Patch Panel Labels

Patch panel mode allows you to label a row of ports
on a patch panel. You select the distance between
ports, enter the desired text, serialize, and print.
The result is a long label with multiple, evenly
spaced text for each port. See Figure 15.

value can be set in increments of 0.5” (12 mm)
up to 20” (480 mm).

on page 9 to serialize the text that will print on
the label.

Printing Terminal Block Labels

Terminal block labels are very similar to patch
panel labels; however, the text is printed vertically.
