T10. wid mag Width magnifier, 1 to 7 times (4 to 255 points for the scalable font - font 50
or downloaded TrueType fonts). Proportionally spaced fonts do not have a
set width. To estimate the size of your field, use the letter “W” for the
widest field or an “L” for an average width field. Find your selected font
and the desired width in Appendix B, “Fonts.”
Note: To use large point sizes (greater than 60 point), you must
reconfigure memory and increase the size of the scalable (vector)
fonts buffer.
T11. color There are two types of field color overlay attributes:
Transparent The overlay field (text or constant text) does not block out
(or “erase”) existing fields.
Opaque The overlay field blocks out (or “erases”) existing fields.
Options for standard printer fonts:
B Opaque, Normal, Black, Normal
D/R/W Opaque, Normal, White, Normal
O Transparent, Normal, Black, Normal
Options for scalable fonts:
A/N Opaque, Normal, Black, Bold
B/O Opaque, Normal, Black, Normal
E/S Opaque, Italics, Black, Bold
F/T Opaque, Italics, Black, Normal
Note: Solid black print should not exceed 30% on a given square inch of
the label, or the printhead life may be decreased.
Field placement in the packet is an important consideration when using
field color attributes. If a line field is defined before the overlay (text or
constant text) field, the line field is blocked out by the overlay field,
depending on the overlay field’s color attribute. If a line field is defined
after the overlay field, the line field is not blocked out by the overlay field,
regardless of the overlay field’s color attribute.
