Printing Labels

Printing from a PC

Use this procedure to print labels that you created on a PC. See “Compatible

Applications” on page 1-2 for more details.

CAUTION!

Before sending a print job from the PC, set the sleep mode on the printer to

"never." If the printer goes into sleep mode, the USB port(s) are powered off and

the print jobs will not be received. See “Set Clock” on page 2-14 for information

about changing the sleep mode setting.

Note: To use this procedure, the printer must be physically connected to PC, the

appropriate drivers (i.e., printer driver, USB driver) must be installed on the PC (see

“Using Your Printer with a PC” on page 2-12) and the BBP

85 printer must be

powered on.

To print from a PC:

1. From the label creation application at the PC, start the print job. The PC will

send the data to the printer.

Note: If the printer is already printing when the data is sent from the PC, the

printer will not acknowledge the data and eventually the PC will time out and

display an error message.

2. When the printer starts printing the job, let the job print, or select

Cancel to cancel the print job.

Note: All standalone printer capabilities are disabled or unavailable while

printing from the PC.
