width of the label you are using:
Maximum of five lines on 19 mm and 24 mm labels •
Maximum of three lines on 9 mm and 12 mm labels •
Maximum of one line on 6 mm labels •
To create a multi-line label
Type the text for the first line, and press 1. Enter.
A new line character is placed at the end of the first line
in the display, but will not print on the label.
Type the text for the second line. 2.

entering text. The example below indicates that the second
line is the current line on the label.
Use the arrow keys to move between lines. 3.
Using Mixed Formats
You can apply different fonts and format styles to the text on a
label by inserting format breaks to divide the label into blocks
or sections of text. Each section is separated by a format break.
You can add two format breaks, allowing you to apply three
separate formats to a label.
