Label Layout Hints
Printing a Label Larger than the Tape Cartridge Width
You can use the procedure in this section to print a label that is larger
than the wide of the tape cartridge loaded in the printer.
Printing a label on multiple pieces of tape will result in margins above and
below the print area. You can deal with these margins using either of the
two methods below.

Print on transparent tape and overlap the pieces when you assemble
the final label. This is the recommended method.

Trim away the margins before assembling the parts into a final label.
Example: To print the label below using a 12mm tape cartridge
Three 12mm labels
1 Use the settings under Label Properties on the Work Window
(page 21) to specify 12mm for Tape Size and 3 for No. of Split.

You can also configure these settings on the Label Properties
screen. See "Creating a New Label Layout" (page 14).
Important!
 
The tape widths for which you can specify the number of pieces
depends on the printer model you are using.
 
Note that the maximum number of pieces value is one that does not
cause the print area (width) setting to exceed 600mm.
