7.3 DC-300 Label Format Editor
An alternative to using the label formatting worksheets to design a free format label (see Section 7.5 and
Section 12.5) is to use the DC-300 Label Format Editor that comes on the CD-ROM you received with your
DC-300 scale. It allows you to define a label size, visually place the different item data on the label and then
download the format to the scale.
If you have not yet configured your computer for Ethernet communication to the DC-300 scale, see Section 11.0.
