Text Style
The P
ANTHER™ LS8E has four different text styles: Normal, Bold, Normal +
Underline, and Bold + Underline. To change the text style, press the STYLE key.
The new text style can be applied to all characters on a label or just to characters
inserted after the change. Text style can be different for each individual text
character on a line.
Text Rotation
Label legends may be rotated to 0, 90, 180, and 270 degrees in the clockwise
direction. The page shaped icon in the lower right hand corner of the display
indicates the current rotation. To change the rotation, press the
key and then
press the
key. Use the directional arrows to scroll to the desired rotation
and press ENTER. The rotation of the legend can be different on each of the 9
pages of a label.
Text Justification
Label legends may be horizontally and vertically justified by pressing the
key
and then pressing ALIGN. The horizontal justification options include left justified,
center justified, and right justified. The vertical justification options include top
justified, center justified, and bottom justified. The character “A” inside of the
page shaped icon in the lower right hand corner of the display indicates the
current justification setting. The character “A” will move within the page shaped
icon to indicate the current justification settings.
NOTE: Vertical justification is not allowed in wire marker mode.
Print Offsets
The printing location of label legends may be adjusted by using the Print Offsets
function. This function is accessed by pressing the
key twice and then
pressing ALIGN. The print offset function has three adjustments: TOP, BOTTOM,
and LEFT. Use the up or down directional arrows to select the adjustment type.
Then use the right or left directional arrows to make the adjustment.
Adjusting the TOP print offset moves the start of a label legend toward or away
from the leading edge of the label. Adjusting the BOTTOM print offset moves the
end of a label legend toward or away from the trailing edge of the label. Adjusting
the LEFT print offset moves the label legend across the width of the label.
