Magnification and<br />
position<br />
If after increasing the magnification or size of the font a field does not<br />
print, check where the field is positioned on the label. The field may<br />
now be positioned off the edge of the label.<br />
As the magnification and size of the font increases, the Y-value in the<br />
label format must increase for you to be able to see it.<br />
Next step<br />
The next step in the workflow for designing and using a new label format<br />
is “Uploading and saving a label format” on page 98.<br />
After uploading the label format, make sure that you test the format<br />
before using it for a batch run.<br />
!! IMPORTANT !! The printer does not always scale bar codes and<br />
fonts consistently. If you change a text field’s magnification, always<br />
perform a test print to make sure that you can still read the text. If<br />
you change a bar code field’s magnification, perform a test read of<br />
the bar code.<br />
