B. CREATING BARCODES ON A MAC

You can integrate barcode printing into any application that

can print to the printer by using Mac Barcode Maker. Mac

Barcode Maker can be purchased from their website at

www.barcodeformac.com
This application was tested using Adobe Illustrator. Follow the

instructions that are included with the application to use it

with your program. Their website does offer a fully functional

trial version which integrates an "EVAL" stamp into all of the

barcodes it produces. Buying the application will cause the

"EVAL" stamp to be removed.
Other barcode integration software is available but was not

tested for compatibility with the printer.

C. PRINTING FROM OTHER APPLICATIONS

Because the printer installs as a standard Macintosh printer

driver, it will print from virtually any Macintosh OS 10.x

application. First, go the the File Menu. Choose Page Setup.

Set Format For to Color Label 400. Set the Paper Size to the

equivalent of your label stock size. If your label size is not on

the predefined list, create a custom size using the instruction

in section 4A steps 7-9. Click OK.
Now click File - Print. Select the number of copies. Click OK

and your printer will print your labels.
