Embossing
Using EASY-MARK for Embossing
EasyMark™ supports Steel Embossing with the MEM 197 / MEM 197E family of steel embossers. The MEM 197 /
MEM 197E steel embossers are treated as local printers and must be connected to the serial port of the computer on
which EasyMark™ runs. Embossing is supported for three different types of "media" or tags. Each tag type has its own
format. These are:
• 3/8’’ tags 1 line of text with 23 characters, format name MMP350W38
• 3/4’’ tags 3 lines of text with 20 characters, format name MMP350H
• 3/4’’ wide tags 3 lines of text with 23 characters, format name MMP350
Selecting one of these formats puts EasyMark™ into "Steel Embossing" mode. This mode restricts the EasyMark™
user interface to match the capabilities of the steel embosser.
