The label length can be set using two different methods. With the size set to AUTO, the machine compares your inputted message with the tape size and automatically adjusts the label length to fit your message. Sometimes, however, you will want to assign a label length regardless of the message's size. The label length can be set from 1.5" (3.8 cm) to 11.3" (28.7 cm). The label lengths are: In inches: AUTO 1.5 1.6 ... 11.3 AUTO... In centimeters: AUTO 3.8 3.9 ... 28.7 AUTO... + The length setting can only be applied to the entire label. It cannot be applied to just part of the text. When a setting other then AUTO is selected for the label length, the message "TOO LONG" is displayed if the text will not fit within the specified length. TO SELECT A TAPE LENGTH: (1) Press the FORMAT key. (2) Press the 4 and 3 keys until the tape length setting (LENGTH) is highlighted. (3) Press the 5 and 6 keys until the setting you wish to use is displayed. Press- ing either key once will change the length by 0.1" (0.1 cm when centimeters are displayed).
