Introduction
The Dymo ILP219 helps you mark and identify cables, wires, patch panels and components around your plant.
The ILP219 can print your information to suit the environment you work in: thermally printed tape can be wrapped around
cables, flagged around wires or applied onto different surfaces. The information can be spaced along a label to fit a row of
switches ,fuses or patch panels.
It can create bar codes, print graphics, and display text in a variety of formats. It can also combine these options in one, pro-
viding all the information you require in a highly readable, long-lasting adhesive label.
Dymo’s specially developed ILP 219 Card Loader software allows you to download data and graphics to store on a memory
card. In this way, you can manage your labelling and identification, and provide your staff with portable information to label
key installations while in the plant or in the field.

ADDING INTERNATIONAL CHARACTERS AND SYMBOLS
International characters
The ILP 219 can add a wide range of accented and other international characters. It uses RACE technology ( Rapid Accented
Character Entry ), comparable to a mobile phone keyboard, to provide a number of different characters from the same key. If
you tap the same key repeatedly within a short time, you can scroll through a sequence of characters based on that letter. For
example, pressing the E key repeatedly in the French-language version will scroll through e - é - è - ê - ë. If you wait for more
than one second, the character will be selected, and the cursor will move on to the next position.
Note: Please make sure that you have selected the appropriate language or the universal “UNI” language for access to all
international characters.
Example:
Type a twice, and the letter à appears. If you tap the key again within one second, á will appear. Pause for a second, and
the letter á will be selected, and the cursor will move on to the next position.
Currency symbols
The key also uses RACE to scroll through a number of currency symbols:
ee
- £ - $ - ¢ - ¥.
The starting order of currency symbols in the list depends on your language settings.
Punctuation
You can insert punctuation in your label by using the PUNCT key, which uses RACE to scroll through a number of punctuation
marks:
Other symbols
The ILP219 can print a wide range of symbols.
A first selection of the most common symbols and some international characters can be inserted using the keys, or a key
with H.
A further range of 20 symbols can be accessed by pressing H and . Refer to the symbol chart to see the symbols
available. You can access the symbol you want in two ways:
•Type the symbol reference code.
Use the cursor Q or R to navigate along the row of symbols you require.
Press ENTER to insert the symbol into your label
Press to cancel.

PAGE BREAK +
You can create ‘multiple formats’ in the same label. You do this by dividing your label into ‘pages’ or blocks of text, each with
its own text size and style settings. Each of these blocks is separated by a page break. The number of lines which can be cre-
ated in each page will depend on the label width. You can store up to two page breaks in a label.
Press + to insert a page break.
When scrolling through the text, each page break is identified by the symbol ·||·. When you scroll through a label with Q or R,
the display will show which ‘page’ of a label you are in. In the example below, you are in the third of three sections:
Note : Page breaks cannot be used in combination with graphics.

FLAG LABELS
With flag labels, the unprinted part of the tape is wrapped around your wire or cable, and the tape is folded back on itself to
form a flag. The flag is therefore as long as the text. The information is automatically printed on both sides of this ‘flag’ part of
the tape, so that it is clearly legible from almost any angle.
The ILP219 can print two types of flag labels: in both cases, it will prompt you to enter the diameter of the wire or cable. The
printer will automatically calculate the circumference of your cable and will print a made-to-measur
e flag.
1. FLAG 1
In FLAG 1 mode, the unprinted part of the label (on the left) is to be wrapped around the wire or cable. On the remaining part,
your information is automatically printed twice, so that you can fold it back on itself to form the flag.
• Press the key.
• Then use H or P on the navigator key to scroll through to the FLAG 1 mode :
• Press to select.
The machine will now prompt you to input the diameter of the wire or cable. The display will show Ø= xx, where xx is
defaulted to 6.4mm or 0.25 inch.

Press ENTER to select. The indicator FLAG 1 will be highlighted.
FLAG 1 mode can print flags for wires or cables with a maximum diameter of 1000mm or 40 inch.
- When asking multiple copies the printer will print after each label 2 small points to indicate the place to cutt off.
- The printing will stop when using data from the memory which causes an error against the available features. Please verify
your settings and re-start the printing.
2. FLAG 2
In FLAG 2 mode, your information is printed at both ends of a label. The unprinted space in the middle is the same size as the
circumference of the wire or cable. This part is wrapped around the wire or cable, and the two printed ends are stuck back to
back to form a flag.
• Press the key.
• Use arrows H or P on the navigator key to scroll through to the FLAG 2 mode:
