Using the Printer

NOTE: You must set the Printer and Page Setup by clicking on these

buttons each time you print. You must perform these steps each

time you print even if what you see on the preview screen appears

correct.

D. 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 func-

tional 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.

E.

PRINTING

FROM OTHER APPLICATIONS

Because the printer installs as a standard Windows or

Macintosh printer driver, it will print from virtually any

Windows 2000/XP or Macintosh OS 10.x application. All you

will need to do is create a custom page size the equivalent of

your label stock size with margins set to "0". Then create

your label and click File > Print. Select the Color Label

Printer as your printer and select the number of copies. Click

OK and your printer will print your labels.
