The
exercises in these last two setup and training steps allow you to make sure that your
printer is configured so that the Digit-Eyes bar codes you print will be correctly
positioned on your labels.
These two steps require sighted assistance because it is necessary to compare the test sheet from the printer with
your labels you've bought to make sure the alignment is correct. After you've verified
your printer setup once, you will not have to repeat this
process.
Start by loading plain paper into your printer; you will
not print actual codes or labels until you've verified that the alignment is correct.
- First, Click on the menu option titled 'Test Your Printer Setup'.
This option lets you print practice sheets on ordinary paper
that are formatted exactly like your labels. Comparing
the practice sheets to your actual labels ensures that the
scaling is set correctly on your printer.
- Last, Click on the option titled 'Print Some Practice Labels'.
Using the practice sheets as if they were actual
labels, you will print a sample sheet of Digit-Eyes codes on plain paper that
can be checked against a real page of labels. This
procedure ensures that the alignment of the codes will be
correct when you print on your real labels.
When you have finished these last two steps, you'll be sure your printer is
set up correctly and you'll be done with setup and training!
You'll then find two new options on the top of the left side menu.
These are the options for making real Digit-Eyes audio and text labels.
