Working with a PC
If you have a PC that meets the system requirements, and has the appropriate
software installed, you can connect it to your label printing system. When you
connect your label printing system to a PC:

means you can use the MarkWare

application running on your PC to make
labels and then print them on your label printer.
z You can use the File Management Utility to transfer files between your label
printing system and the PC. For example, you can transfer graphic files such as
a logo to your system. The files you transfer can then be used to create output
when your label printing system is not connected to a PC.
Note: If the PC does not support USB, you can use a serial cable to connect your
printing system to a PC. See your PC’s documentation on serial port
connections.
