The Three Printer Systems - Brady GlobalMark 2 User Manual

The three printer systems

All three label-printing systems use Microsoft Windows CE
operating system and application. As the user, most of the Windows CE operating
system will be invisible to you. You don't need to use your computer skills to
operate this printing system.
Hint!
The three systems are:
Monocolor system
The base system, which produces monochrome labels only.
Hint!
The Monocolor system automatically shears labels to the correct length after
printing, but does not have the ability to produce cut-outs and cut-arounds.
The system is designed to run as a standalone system without support from a
PC, but you can attach a PC to access special file management features. The
Monocolor system LCD screen displays in grayscale only, like a black and
white television.
Multicolor system
The base system, plus color printing capability. The Multicolor system is
provided with a color LCD display, and can take full advantage of spot and
process color printing supplies available. See CHAPTER 8: Applying Color,
beginning on page 8-1, for information about using color.
Color & Cut system
The base system, plus color printing capability and a color LCD display, plus
cut-out capability, which means the system can not only print your labels, but
can cut labels into shapes. See CHAPTER 10: Working with Cut-outs,
beginning on page 10-1, for information about using the cutter.
You do have the option to connect to a desktop computer to use the system
as a peripheral printer or to manage and store files. See CHAPTER 12:
Connecting to a PC, beginning on page 12-1, for information.
The definition of monochrome in this context is not necessarily black,
white, and shades of gray as you may see on a black-and-white television
screen. In this system, monochrome means a single color, plus shades of
that color, plus white. In the Monocolor system, the single color is
determined by the color of the ribbon you have installed.
