What is P-touch Template?

P-touch Template is the tool to transfer the ASCII

text & binary data from a terminal unit to

transferred template in the printer. Such

transferred data is inserted into text object or

barcode object in a template.

2. Design the template by P-touch Editor, and transfer it to printer.

It helps the user develop the printing system which connects directly from the terminal

unit. The types of terminal unit are as below.

P-touch Template Limitations

■ Relating to text objects

(Please also refer to

HRelationship between the P-touch Editor setting and the printer

image in page 20.)

Font

s specified in P-touch Editor are converted to Helsinki, Letter Gothic or Brussels,

depending on the font shape, when the data is sent to the

printer.

(The font is converted according to the following rules: fixed pitch: Letter Gothic; serif:

Brussels; sans serif: Helsinki. With symbol fonts, symbols are converted to text objects if

text input mode has been entered, and the font is converted to one of the three described

above. If the text input mode has been exited, symbols are converted to image objects

and the selected font is not converted.)

· Character sizes specified in P-touch Editor are converted to the closest built-in character

size when the data is sent to the

printer.

· Character sizes specified in P-touch Editor are all made the same size within an object.

· If “At Printing” is selected, a time stamp specified in P-touch Editor is not printed. If “At

Printing” is not selected, the time stamp is printed with the date and time that the data

was created in P-touch Editor.

Page 12

“At Printing” setting

(To cancel the “At Printing” setting for a date/time in P-touch Editor, display the properties

for the Date and Time object, and then clear the “At Printing” check box.)

· Horizontal alignment settings (“Justify” or “Equal Length”) specified in P-touch Editor are

changed to the left alignment setting.

· The setting for line spacing with a line return specified with the P-touch Editor can be set

between 0 and 255 dots.

(A negative line spacing setting cannot be used in P-touch Editor. In addition, since there is

an upper limit (about 21 mm) for the line width with the printer, a line spacing setting

larger than this limit specified in P-touch Editor will not be applied on the printer.)

Page 13

Specifying the line spacing setting in P-touch Editor

・Numbering settings specified in P-touch Editor are invalid.

(The text specified as the default numbering text is printed with P-touch Template.)

Default numbering

For the numbering text specified in P-touch Editor and shown above, “100” is the default;

therefore, “No. 100” will be printed when printing with the

printer.

· Character styles specified in P-touch Editor are all made the same style within an object.

· If the “Long Text” setting is selected below “Text Layout” in P-touch Editor, the vertical

alignment setting is normally set for top alignment.

· If the “Fixed Frame Size (Wrap)” setting is selected under “Text Layout” in P-touch Editor,

the object size does not change, and the text size is reduced.

(“Fixed Frame Size (Wrap)” is a setting that was added for inserting long text. Since it is

possible that the text size may become extremely small if the wrapping feature is no

longer applied, we recommend that “Fixed Frame Size” be selected when paper with a

Page 14

fixed size or fixed length is specified in P-touch Editor, or that “Automatic Length” be

selected when an automatic media length is specified.)

1. Shrink to Fit: The text object size is fixed, and the text size is changed depending on the text

length.

2. Clip Text: The text object size is fixed, and the text size is fixed. If the text is too long, the text

is not printed.

3. Long Text: The text object width is fixed, and the text size is fixed. If the text is too long, the

text object height is increased.

4. Automatic Length: The text object height is fixed, and the text size is fixed. If the text is too

long, the text object width is increased.

5. Free Size: The text size is fixed. If the text is too long, the text object width is increased. If a

new line is started, the text height is increased.

Specifying a Text Layout setting

Click the button circled in red to display a drop-down list, and then select the desired

option.

■Relating to bar codes

●Bar codes

· When trying to transfer a template containing a bar code that is not compatible with the

printer, an error will occur while transferring and the template cannot be transferred to the

printer.

The following bar codes are compatible with the

1D bar codes

CODE39, I-2/5,UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN-13, EAN-8, CODE128, GS1-128 (UCC/EAN-128),

CODABAR

2D bar codes

PDF417, QR Code, Micro QR Code, DataMatrix

printer.

· If data containing characters incompatible with the protocol are fed into the bar code object,

that bar code object is not printed.

· The bar code size may differ from that in the print result with P-touch Editor.

· Since CODE128/GS1-128 (UCC/EAN-128) can easily be printed slightly larger, we

recommend leaving larger margins when creating templates in P-touch Editor.

· If data fed into a bar code in a template created with P-touch Editor causes an extremely

long bar code, the bar code may not be fully printed.

· Do not insert line returns immediately before or immediately after the bar code data.

Otherwise, it will be considered as part of the bar code data. In that case, the bar code will

be created containing the line return code, or the bar code will not be printed since data

incompatible with the bar code protocol is entered.

· A delimiter or print start text string should be entered immediately after the bar code data.

●1D bar codes

· The ratio setting for 1D bar codes specified in P-touch Editor is invalid. Normally, this is

fixed at 3:1.

· A 1D bar code taller than the maximum printing width is converted as follows;

MW-260/PJ-623/PJ-663

MW-145BT

： taller than 96 mm → 96 mm ： taller than 69 mm → 69 mm

· The number of characters that can be entered for each protocol is shown below.

CODE39: 1 to 50 characters (not including “*” on both sides)

I-2/5: 3 to 64 characters

EAN-8: 7 characters

EAN-13: 12 characters

UPC-A: 11 characters

UPC-E: 6 characters

Page 16

CODABAR: 4 to 64 characters (with “A”, “B”, “C” or “D” at the beginning and end)

CODE128: 1 to 64 characters

GS1-128 (UCC/EAN-128): 1 to 64 characters

When trying to transfer data exceeding the ranges describe above, an error will occur

while transferring. If the data that is fed does not meet the minimum limit, the bar code is

not printed. If the data exceeds the maximum limit, only the data to the maximum limit is

applied. However, if the data exceeds 64 characters, the bar code is not printed.

· If a template is created in P-touch Editor with an extremely low bar code bar height, the

bars may not be printed.

●CODE39

· When feeding data, the asterisks (*) at the beginning and end of the data are skipped.

●I-2/5

· The bearer bar setting specified in P-touch Editor is invalid.

●GS1-128 (UCC/EAN-128)/CODE128

· If the bar code width has been set to “Minimum” in P-touch Editor, the characters below the

bar code are not printed, even if the “Show Characters” setting has been selected.

●QR Code

· The version setting for a QR Code specified in P-touch Editor is invalid. The version setting

must be turned off.

· The joining setting specified in P-touch Editor is invalid.

● PDF417

· Since the error correction levels for PDF417 specified in P-touch Editor are inconsistent

with those on the P-touch Template.

printer, the size of the bar code may change when it is printed with

· The width for PDF417 specified in P-touch Editor may change from “Minimum” to “Small”.

· The joining setting specified in P-touch Editor is invalid.

● DataMatrix

· The joining setting specified in P-touch Editor is invalid.

· Macro settings specified in P-touch Editor are invalid.

■ Relating to images

· If a template containing overlapping images is transferred with P-touch Editor, all image

data will be overlapping. (P-touch Editor displays the image created last on top.)

Page 17

■ Others

· A maximum of 99 templates can be transferred. The transfer cannot be completed if the

amount of data being transferred exceeds the followings;

MW-145BT/MW-260 ： 512KB

PJ-623/PJ-663 ： 5,888KB

· A single template can contain at the maximum the following numbers of objects. When

trying to transfer more objects than the maximum, an error will occur and the transfer

cannot be completed.

MW-145BT/MW-260

PJ-623/PJ-663

： 50 objects

： 200 objects

· A single template can contain a total of 1000 lines of text. If it exceeds this limit, an error

will occur during printing.

· The line return codes (0D0A, 0D and 0A) in print data are read, then discarded. However,

when specified as special data, such as delimiters or print start text strings or line return

commands, they are applied.

· The order of the objects is determined only by the last four-digit number of the object name.

Objects with no numbers in their names will be at the end of the order. If objects have the

same number, the order is determined in the following order: text, 1D bar codes, then 2D

bar codes. If the objects are of the same type, the object created first is first in the order.

We recommend that the numbers indicating the order be added at the end of the object

name.

(To specify the name of an object in P-touch Editor, display the properties of the text or bar

code object, and then specify the name in the “Object Name” box on the Expanded tab.)

Specifying the object name

Page 18

· When print data is fed, the command mode should be the P-touch Template mode.

· When a template is transferred to the printer, all values specified with dynamic commands

are initialized.

· Printing begins when the print start text string is received, even if the print start trigger is

“when all objects are filled”.

· After printing from P-touch Editor, the command mode changes to ESC/P mode or raster

mode (only raster mode for MW-145BT/MW-260). In order to print a template, select the

P-touch Template mode in the Printer Settings tool or, if the previous mode in the Printer

Settings tool was the P-touch Template mode, turn the printer off, then on again to enter P-touch Template mode.

About P-touch Template

Data can be sent from a host (such as measuring instruments, scales and bar code

readers) and printed in a template previously transferred to the machine from P-touch

Editor.

P-touch Template commands used in P-touch Template mode (except ESC i a) consist of

a prefix character and a two-character text string. When the prefix character is sent, the

machine begins the analysis of the P-touch Template command, and performs the

specified process if the following two-character text string corresponds to a command.

Static and dynamic commands

With static commands, items specified with a setting command are saved and stored in

the memory.

With dynamic commands, items specified with a setting command are temporarily saved

and applied until the machine is turned off.

If printing does not begin (main most frequent causes)

1) The command mode is not in the P-touch Template mode.

2) The conditions for the print start trigger are not met.

The following three types of print start triggers exists, but this selection is incorrect.

i) When the specified text string is received

ii) When all objects are filled

iii) When the specified number of characters is received

If the settings described above are incorrect, use the machine setting tool to specify the

settings.
