XL Tags - This option allows the operator to open a "Microsoft Excel
spreadsheet" and print the data contained within it on cassettes. Files in
the CSV (comma separated variable) format can also be loaded and
printed.

Exit - Exits the program.

Between the XL Tags menu item and the Exit item is a list of up to 4 layout
filenames. The program keeps track of the last four layouts loaded by the
operator and allows them to be re-loaded quickly by clicking on the
filename.

The Printer menu gives the operator the ability to control various aspects of
the printer.

Online - Puts the printer online. This is necessary so that cassettes can be
printed.

Offline - Puts the printer offline. Printing cassettes is not possible in this
state.

Accept Data - Selecting this menu item will accept the data entered by the
operator into the Data Entry fields and redraw the cassette image for pre-
view.

Print - Select this menu item to begin printing cassettes.

Abort - Select this menu item to abort the current cassette print. This menu
item is only available if the program is currently printing a cassette.

Reloaded - Select this menu item to indicate that you have manually reload-
ed cassettes into the printer. Putting the printer online has the same effect.

Note that all of the Printer menu items have an associated function
key. Pressing the function key is the same as clicking the item in the
menu.
