Flag Mode

Labels printed using this Label Type mode can be wrapped
around cable or wire with the ends stuck together to form a
flag. With the FLAG Label Type mode, each block of text is
printed at both ends of separate labels. The length of the
unprinted part of this label is equal to the circumference of
the cable or wire. In addition, the text can be printed
horizontally or rotated 90°.

After selecting the FLAG Label Type mode, specify the length and diameter of the flag,
a frame style if desired, and whether or not to rotate the text.

FLAG (flag diameter):

0.00" to 4.00" (0 to 100 mm)
Default: 0.25" (7 mm)

FLAG LEN (flag length):

0.40" to 8.00" (10 to 200 mm)
Default: 1.20" (30 mm)

FRAME:

OFF, , , ,
Default: OFF

ROTATE:

OFF, ON
Default: OFF

A single block of text can contain a maximum of 7 text lines.

For labels to be attached to cables and wires, we recommend using Flexible ID Tape.
To wrap Flexible ID Tape around cylindrical objects, use the FLAG Label Type
mode when the diameter of the object is less than 1/8" (3 mm). In addition, the flag
length should be at least 3/16" (5 mm).
