Graphic Fields
You must define a graphic field if you want to print a graphic image on a
label. Before you can use this field, you need to download the graphic to
the printer. Once you download the graphic, you can use it in any format.
Use the PrintSet printer installation software to easily download graphics
to the printer. PrintSet automatically converts the graphic into a six bits
per byte format that your printer can understand.
If you are using third-party label-generation software, it converts your
graphic file to a UDC format that the printer can interpret and downloads
it to the printer.
If you want to design your own graphic, refer to “Creating User-Defined
Bitmap Graphics” in Appendix C. You must send graphics as either one
bit per byte or six bits per byte bitmap images. The maximum size that
you can define a graphic to be is limited by the capacity of your printer.
Due to message length constraints, you must design large graphics in the
six bits per byte format.
You can use Direct Graphics mode to reduce the time it takes to download
and print an image. For more information on direct graphics, see
Appendix E, “Using Direct Graphics Mode.”
