Auto Format function
The Auto Format function keys (
6 and 7)
make creating labels and stamps quick and
easy. After simply selecting one of the various
pre-formatted templates and typing text into
each of its fields, the overall style of the label
can easily be changed by selecting one of the
six available style formats, and then the label is
ready to be printed.
The two sets of templates available allow you to
create labels and stamps for a variety of needs—
from addressing envelopes to identifying floppy
disks or audio and video cassettes. The 15 tem-
plates available by pressing
6 are designed
specifically for the pre-sized AV labels, which
allow you to quickly and easily create multiple
copies of address and filing labels. By pressing
7, a wider variety of 39 templates are avail-
able for use with TZ tape. The width and length
of each label or stamp printed from a template is
preset. For samples of the available templates,
refer to pages 93 through 98.
After the text is entered, a different style for the
text can easily be selected. For samples of the
available style formats, refer to pages 99.
