Driver Features
Loftware Label Manager takes full advantage of the sophisticated features of the Paxar/Monarch line of
printers.The fixed portions of the label format are stored in the printer’s memory to increase printing
performance.
In Label Design, when you are test printing, the label format is downloaded every time.However, in
Label Printing, the label format is only downloaded the first time.Afterwards, only the variable fields
and any new variable images are sent to the printer.If you print the same variable image on two labels
in a row, it is stored in the printer for the first label and not downloaded for the second. The image is
deleted from the printer’s memory if the image field is left blank for a printed label.
When doing a range print or printing incrementing/decrementing fields, there may be a slight pause
between labels while the printer images the new label. When the printer is capable of doing the
incrementing/decrementing internally, it is instructed to do so. If not, all variable data for each label is
sent to the printer each time and Loftware Label Manager does all of the incrementing / decrementing.
Printer Status (Serial only)
If the printer reports that everything is OK, the level of firmware in the printer is also displayed.
This function can be a valuable tool.If there is a problem communicating with the printer, a
corresponding error message is displayed.
