CAPS Mode
The
CAPS
key toggles capitalization on and off. When CAPS
mode is turned on, the CAPS mode indicator is shown on the 
display and all letters that you enter will be capitalized. The 
default setting is CAPS mode on. When CAPS mode is off, all 
letters entered appear in lower case.
Shift Key
The
Shift
key, when used in combination with an alphabet
key, changes the case of the selected letter. When used in 
combination with number keys or function keys, the 
Shift
key
selects the alternate function shown on the key. For example, 
when you press 
Clear
, the character to the left of the cursor is
deleted; however, when you press
Shift
+
Clear
together, the
entire label text and formatting is deleted and the display is 
ready for you to type a new label.

The
Clear
key removes the character to the left of the cursor.
Shift

clears all label text and formatting.

The

key allows you to exit from a menu without making a
selection or to cancel an action.
Navigation Keys
With the
keys, you can review and edit your label, and
navigate through the menus. Use the left and right arrow keys 
to move the cursor along the label text or to move through 
fields. Use the up and down arrow keys to increase or decrease 
settings and to select menu items, and then press 
H
to
accept the selection.
Connecting to Your Computer

you can print labels from your computer using DYMO Label 
Software. Your label maker connects to your computer using 
the USB connection located on the top of the label maker. See 
Figure 8.

The label maker remembers the last feature selection
made so that each time you enter one of the feature menus 
described in this section, you are positioned at the last item 
selected from that menu.
Changing the Font

Arial Narrow
Arial Normal

on the label. If you want to use more than one font, you must 
insert format breaks. See Using Mixed Formats on page 10
