Use this menu item to fill in variable fields in a label format and print the label using a Human Input Device (HID), such as a USB keyboard, scale, or barcode scanner.
To use this option, a suitable label format must be stored on the printer's E: drive. See Using the USB Host Port and Near Field Communication (NFC) Capabilities and Exercise 5: Enter Data for a Stored File with a Smart Device and Print a Label to learn how to use this feature.
When you plug an HID into one of the printer’s USB host ports, use this menu to select a form on the printer’s E: drive. When you are prompted to fill in each variable
^FN
 field on the form, you can specify the desired quantity of labels to print.
