Typing labels
The DYMO LabelMANAGER 400 looks familiar: it has the
same layout as a computer keyboard to make typing
labels easy.
Typing normal characters: just like a computer keyboard
You can type in upper case by pressing
. The icon at
the bottom left of the display will show ABC.
Press
again to drop to lower case, and the icon will
disappear.
If you make a mistake, press and the cursor will delete
the character on the left of the current cursor position, and
will move one place to the left.
The key inserts a blank space within your label.
Extra characters
The LabelMANAGER 400 also stores a large number of extra
characters (such as other letters or accented letters). It uses
technology similar to that of a mobile phone keyboard. If
you tap the same key repeatedly within a short time, you can
scroll through a sequence of characters based on that letter.
For example, pressing the E key repeatedly in the French-
language version will scroll through e - й - и - к. If you wait
one second, the character will be selected, and the cursor
will move on to the next position.
You can indicate another letter than the E. We will complete
the list of accented characters for that letter in your language.
Example:
Type a twice, and the letter à appears. If you tap the key
again within one second, á will appear. Pause for a sec-
ond, and the letter á will be selected, and the cursor will
move on to the next position.
For rapid entry of double letters like oo, you can use the R
key to advance the cursor, so you don’t have to wait.
Currency symbols
The currency key
e e also uses RACE to scroll through a
number of currency symbols: e e - £ - $ - ¢ - ¥.
The order these symbols appear depends on the keyboard
version and language you have selected.
