Capability Description
Printed Barcode Does Not
Match the Design
It is possible to define a combination of attributes, such as line width and ratio that
the printer cannot produce, or might print in one orientation but not another. Under
these conditions, the printer may print the closest possible barcode.This usually
occurs when you define a barcode with line width 1. The printer sometimes promotes
this to a line width 2 barcode, resulting in a printed barcode that is twice as long as
desired.

Incrementing/Decrementin
g Fields
When the printer is capable of doing the incrementing/decrementing internally, it is
instructed to do so. This is called Native Mode. When printing in Native Mode, control
returns to the computer almost immediately.
Loftware Label Manager does incrementing/decrementing in software when the
printer cannot do it internally and sends down a different set of data for each
label.This is called Extended Mode. In Extended Mode, the Printing dialog box
shows the line “Printing Label x of y” and control does not return to the computer
until the entire series of labels is printed.
Datamax: Label Size
The label size is used as a frame of reference. When you rotate your label, or when
you rotate the printing of a label, it is imperative that Loftware Label Manager Design
knows the exact size of the stock on which you are printing.
