Shift indicator

This indicator appears when you press the SHIFT key. While this indicator is on
the display, the keyboard is shifted, so the letter keys input upper-case alpha
characters. The number keys input the punctuation symbols marked in the upper
right corners of the keys.
If both the caps mode indicator and the shift indicator are shown on the display,
the keyboard is shifted to lower-case input.
The keyboard automatically unshifts (and the shift indicator disappears) as soon
as you input a character.

Code indicator

This indicator appears when you press the CODE key. While this indicator is on
the display, number keys 1 through 0 input the accents marked above them and
the U, O, P, A, S, J, K, L, Z, C and N keys input the special characters marked
in their lower right corners.
The keyboard automatically returns to normal (and the code indicator disappears)
as soon as you input an accent.

Caps indicator

This indicator appears when the Label Printer is in the caps (upper-case) mode.
All letters you input in the caps mode are upper-case. When the caps mode
indicator is not shown on the display, all letters are input as lower-case.
Note that the Label Printer stays in the caps mode until you press the CAPS
key again.
If both the caps mode indicator and the shift indicator are shown on the display,
the keyboard is shifted to lower-case input.

Conversion indicator

This indicator appears when you are performing a currency conversion operation.

Bar code indicator

This indicator appears when you are performing a bar code operation.

Effect indicators

These indicators point to the character effect that is currently in use. You can
select between shading, underline, and box.

Style indicators

These indicators point to the character style that is currently in use. You can
select between normal, outline, shadow, and raised.

Part 3

Inputting Characters and Symbols

This part of the manual tells you how to input characters. To make things easier to
understand, we call everything you input a character, regardless of whether it is
actually a letter, number, or symbol. Explanations here all use the default settings
that are in effect from the initial power-on screen.
For information on using other character styles, effects and sizes, see page E-12.

Important!

You can input up to 95 characters per label. Further input becomes impossible
after you input the 95th character.

Display Symbols and Indicators

Before getting into actual input, you should first become acquainted with the
symbols and indicators used on the Label Printer display.
