I use 1,0 for male. 0,1 for female. Works for me. But I have to say, I was looking for those symbols as well when I got mine…Just to follow up, I ended up scoring a DYMO LetraTag at the Mart of Wal. It was less than $20 and they had all the replacement tapes for it right there.
It has an instruction manual, but you don't need it. It runs off 4 AA batteries. As mOlsx pointed out, you can print two lines. It also has a selection of symbols you can print, but there is no male or female symbol. You can, however print a picture of a spider or a piece of cheese, so there is that.
I'm happy with it. Thanks to all for the input!
The standard convention is x.x.x,.meaning male, female, unsexedI use 1,0 for male. 0,1 for female. Works for me. But I have to say, I was looking for those symbols as well when I got mine…
