Pre Define Label Stock Option
If you are choosing Pre define label stock mode of printing, you need to select label product with its product number to get already defined print settings (label details) including label width, height, margins, paper used, orientation etc.
Custom option is also available to adjust label width, height, various margins and barcode spaces as per need and save it for future reference.
When to use Pre Define Label Stock option
The Pre Define Label Stock option is specially used when you want to print the barcode labels in a predefined print format. This option is basically for those who face problems in setting up the margins and spacing adjustments. The software provides different kinds of label products such as Ace Label, Adetec, Formtec, Lorenz Bell, RAYFILM, Tower, etc. Once you choose a particular label product along with the product number then a couple of prefined print settings related to the selected label product are automatically applied in the Label Details section. You only need to adjust the print properties and then print the barcode label.
Just like the Manual Print option, you can also adjust the print settings in your own way, but the upper hand is that you can save it as a custom product label and use it to print other barcode labels as many times as you want.
