File Management
Figure 27 • File menu options
A single label or a number of labels can be saved as a file, to be opened and reused at a later
date. The following are guidelines when creating a label file:
• Labels using continuous media or die-cut media cannot be combined in the same label
file. All labels in a label file must use the same label part number.
• Serialized labels cannot be combined in a file with other non-serialized labels.
Save
A saved file is held internally in the printer, even when the power is turned off. The saved file
retains the label data, data attributes, and alignment parameters. This file is available for reuse
whenever needed.
File Naming Standards
To create a file on the BMP71 printer, the file must be given a name. Names can be up to 20
characters long and can consist of letters, numbers, and spaces.
When creating files, remember this rule: You cannot have two files with the same name. If
you do, the most recent file with the name will overwrite the previous file with that name. A
one-character difference in the name creates a different file and will not overwrite a previous
file.
