Length Function - Brother P-touch PT-1300 User Manual

Although the length of the printed label automatically adjusts to fit the length of the
entered text, there may be times when you will want to make a label with a specific
length. The length function allows you to set the label length between 1.6 and 11.8
inches (4.0 and 30.0 centimeters).
The default length setting is OFF. If ON is selected, the Length indicator at the bottom
of the display lights up.
Turning off the machine and then turning it on again changes the length setting
back to OFF.
