WEEKLY STANDARD MAINTENANCE

MAINTENANCE with WHITE AGITATION

P-DIP will replace the existing“GT Separator PNG”.

This program will recognize and open“.bmp, .gif, .jpg, and .png” formats.

It is not a graphic image editing software. This is for outputting an image that has

gradients and fades to the Brother GT-3 printer(s).

P-DIP will also correct slight anti-alias issues.
