T8. font Style of font. Options:
1 Standard 6 HR2
2 Reduced 10 CG Triumvirate™Typeface Bold
3 Bold 11 CG Triumvirate™ Typeface

5 HR1
Or a valid downloaded font selector number.
Fonts 5 and 6 are for numeric data only. The CG Triumvirate™ typefaces support
only the ANSI and DOS Code Page 437 and 850 Symbol Sets. The scalable font
does not support Code Page 1256 (Arabic). See Appendix C for more information.
T9. hgt mag Height magnifier, 1 to 7 times (4 to 255 points for scalable/downloaded TrueType
fonts). Use a magnifier of 1 with proportionally spaced fonts, because characters
lose smoothness at higher magnifications. See Appendix B, “Fonts,” for more
information about fonts.
T10. wid mag Width magnifier, 1 to 7 times (4 to 255 points for scalable/downloaded TrueType
fonts). Proportionally spaced fonts do not have a set width. To estimate the size
of your field, use the letter “W” for the widest field or an “L” for an average width
field. Find your selected font and the desired width in Appendix B, “Fonts
.”
T11. color There are two types of field color overlay attributes:
Transparent The overlay field (text or constant text) does not block out
(or “erase”) existing fields.
Opaque The overlay field blocks out (or “erases”) existing fields.

B Opaque, Normal, Black, Normal
D/R/W Opaque, Normal, White, Normal
O Transparent, Normal, Black, Normal
Options for scalable fonts:

e: Solid black print should not exceed 30% on a given square inch of the label, or
the printhead life may be decreased.
Field placement in the packet is an important consideration when using field color
attributes. If a line field is defined before the overlay (text or constant text) field,
the line field is blocked out by the overlay field, depending on the overlay field’s
color attribute. If a line field is defined after the overlay field, the line field is not
blocked out by the overlay field, regardless of the overlay field’s color attribute.
T12. alignment Alignment of text in the field. Options:
L Align on left side of field.
C Center text within field (monospaced fonts only)
R Align on right side of field (monospaced fonts only)
B Align at midpoint of field
E Align at endpoint of the field
Use L, B, or E for any font.
