Setup option What it does Automatic preview Allows you to turn the dynamic preview feature On or Off. The default setting is On. Dynamic preview allows the system to update your label as you type from the keyboard, typically when you pause. Sometimes this slows down your keyboard response time. If you turn Off dynamic updating, you can increase the keyboard response speed; that is, it will take less time between when you type a keystroke in the text area and when those characters appear on the screen.
Length units Sets the unit of measure for displaying label length and other length values (such as amount of tape remaining). Choose Inches (default) or mm. Pause between labels Controls whether or not the system pauses between labels when printing multiple labels. Choose Off (default) or On.
