This section explains how to use the
REPEAT key to print multiple copies of a file (label)
and how to sequence text either numerically or alphabetically.
Press the REPEAT key to make copies
or sequence labels. The prompt shown below will appear:
Select COPIES to specify the number
of copies you want to print (1-999). Use the left/right
cursor keys to move the cursor to the left of COPIES
and push ENTER. The printer displays the current setting
for this option (see the following sample screen) and
waits for your entry. Push DEL to accept the number
of copies shown, or type in the specific number you
want and push ENTER. Then push the PRINT key.
Select SEQUENCE to automatically generate
and print labels containing a sequence of one letter
or one to three numbers (101, 102, 103, ABC... etc.)
without having to type the text on each label yourself.
You simply tell the printer what characters to print
on the first and last labels, and how much to increment
between labels (see the table below).

The sequence character takes on the
current character attributes previously defined. Optionally,
you can redefine the sequence character's attributes
like any other character. Note: You can only define
one sequence type (numeric or alpha) per document/file
once on each line.
Select SEQUENCE from the REPEAT Menu.
The SEQUENCE Menu will appear.
Use the left/right cursor keys to
move to the left of the option you want and press ENTER
to select it.
Let's take a look at some examples:
