2. Layout the tape.

3. Print the tape.

• After the three pieces of tape are printed, assemble them to produce the 54mm wide layout shown in the example above.

Out of Memory when Importing a Bitmap or Other Graphic File, or when Printing Graphics

The message ”Not enough memory!” may appear when importing a bit map or other graphic file data into a graphic field, or when you try to print a

layout that includes a graphic field. This is probably due to either of the two following causes.

1. Insufficient computer memory. Try closing other applications that might be running and try again.

2. Windows 3.1 display driver problem. This problem does not occur with most newer display drivers, but it can be a problem with older versions.

Contact the manufacturer of your computer for details.

”Specified port does not exist.” message

• First try changing to another COM port.

• If this does not work check your BIOS settings to make sure that the communication ports are not disabled. Try connecting an external modem or

other device and see if it operates normally.

• If you are using Windows 95, you can check the COM port status with Device Manager, which is located under System in the Control Panel. Check

whether the ports (COM/LPT) include information for a communication port (COM1)

Important!

• BIOS settings are very critical and changing them can have unforeseen affects on your system. Contact the manufacturer of your computer

before trying to change BIOS settings.

Imported Bitmaps and Other Graphics are Blacked Out when Printed

The resolution of the bitmap data may be too high. Try using the graphic selection and editing screen to apply a mask pattern to correct the problem.

Additional and Supplementary Information

Editing and Printing Non-standard Text Layouts

This application provides you with such non-standard text layouts as: [Arch], [Wave], [Squeeze], [Balloon], and [Path].

Of these, arch and wave may result in the character spacing of printed text being different from that of displayed text. Because of this, it is

recommended that you check the character spacing by enlarging the view on the screen 400% before printing it.

Dithering

About the [Dithering] button

This application lets you select between ordered dithering and error diffusion to produce pseudo halftone images from imported color and grayscale

data. Note, however, that clicking the [Edit...] button to perform data editing instantly converts data to monochrome data, so you cannot perform

dithering on graphics that have been edited. All of this means that if you plan to perform both dithering and editing on color data or grayscale data, you

should first perform the dithering and then edit the data.

Performing Error Diffusion on Background Graphics

The error diffusion dithering algorithm results in a loss of data density at right and bottom edges. Because of this, the line between a repeated graphics

pattern (such as background graphic data) will be visible if the graphics have been dithered using error diffusion.

Arch, Wave, and other Non-standard Text Layout

The displayed appearance of text arranged using non-standard layouts like arch and wave may be different from the appearance of the printed text. Try

the following steps to get the printed output as close to the displayed version as possible.

1. Use a font size as close as possible to the required size. Using a different size and then enlarging or reducing to fit can cause errors to be

generated.

2. With some EZ-LABEL PRINTER models, certain display zoom factors will produce a display image that is close to the printed image.

* Use 2x with KL-8100

Rotating Background Graphics 90 Degrees

Importing graphic data after rotating by 90 degrees a graphics field whose aspect ratio (width to height) is not 1:1 causes the width and the height of

the imported graphic data to be reversed. This means that graphic data that has been rotated 90 degrees can be used as a background pattern

regardless of aspect ratio, without worrying about distortion of the graphic.

Communication and Printing Problems

Network

If you are using a computer with a CPU that is older than that specified for this application, the application may suddenly quit when you attempt to

communicate using the network function, or you may experience problems when trying to send print data from your computer to the EZ-LABEL

PRINTER.

If this happens, turn off the network setting. For details on how to do this, see the documentation that comes with your computer and the

documentation for your network’s operating system.
