l
Use printer's internal fonts instead of Windows' true-type fonts. True-type fonts must be
sent to printer as graphics and therefore the size of data sent to printer is much bigger
(couple of kilobytes). When using internal fonts, only the text is sent to printer (couple of
bytes).
l
Avoid use of graphics on labels.
l
When using bar codes, make sure that you don't print bar codes as graphics, if your
printer supports printing bar codes.
l
When using counters, the printer will internally increment the numbers if the internal
fonts are used. (if supported by the printer) This means, that the printer will only receive
the first number of object, and will later increment this number to print other labels.
Using this option also reduces the amount of data transferred between computer and
printer, but the difference is noticeable only with high quantity of labels.
l
Set the printing speed to a higher value (if your printer supports it). Note that setting the
printing speed usually affects the quality of printing. The higher the speed, the lower the
quality. You will have to find an acceptable compromise for this.
l
Don't print too much data on labels. If the speed of printing is an important factor, you
should consider using preprinted labels, and only print the data, that is different on each
label.
