What is P-touch Template?

P-touch Template is a tool for transferring ASCII

text and binary data from a host device to a

template transferred to the printer. This

transferred data is inserted into text objects or bar

code objects in the template.

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

This allows the user to develop a printing system that connects directly from the host

device. Compatible host devices are listed below.

1. Set up the printer from the computer according to configuration of the host device.

3. Transfer the data (text) from the host device, and then print it in the template.

Scale/measurement devices Medical devices Bar code readers

 Control devices in any system environment

Note:

*The host device should be equipped with a connector for a serial cable (RS-232C) or

USB-A cable in order to transfer the data.

Using P-touch Template

1. Set up the printer.

With the P-touch Template Settings tool, specify the initial printer

settings according to the host system environment or the host

device that PT-9800PCN/PT-9700PC is connected to.

(Refer to “P-touch Template Settings tool” on page 7.)

The printer driver must first be installed via a USB connection.

2. Design the template.

With P-touch Editor, design the template to be

transferred.

(Refer to “P-touch Template limitations” on page 14.)

3. Transfer the template.

With P-touch Transfer Manager, transfer the

templates to the printer.

(Refer to the PT-9800PCN/PT-9700PC User’s Guide.)

4. Program using P-touch Template commands.

If any special commands are required to control the

printer, change the host program as described in

the P-touch Template Command Reference.

(Refer to the P-touch Template Command Reference.)

5. Connect the printer to the host device, and print labels.

Connect the printer to the host device by using a serial

cable (RS-232C) or USB-A cable.

Transfer the data, such as ASCII text, from the host

device to templates on the machine, and print the labels.

*Refer to the sample code for details on using P-touch Template.

P-touch Template limitations

■ Relating to text objects

・Fonts 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 machine.

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

Brussels; san serif: Helsinki. Symbol fonts are converted to text objects if text input mode

has been entered, and fonts are divided into three categories, as described above. If the

text input mode has been exited, they 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 machine.

・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.

・Depending on the language of the computer used for transferring, either the Western

European or the Eastern European character set is used for characters within text objects.

“At Printing” setting

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

Time Properties dialog box 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 feed specified with the P-touch 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 machine, a line spacing setting

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

Specifying the line spacing setting in P-touch Editor

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

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

alignment setting is normally set for top alignment.

・If "Long Text” is selected under “Text Layout” in P-touch Editor and continuous length tape

is used, the print length is increased to fit the text.

・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 die-cut labels are

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

selected when an automatic media length is specified.)

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

the text length.

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

not printed.

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

line feed is automatically added, and the height of the text object is increased.

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

long, the width of the text object is increased.

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

increased. If a line feed is added, the height of the text object is increased.

Specifying a Text Layout setting

Making a template in order to save time before starting to print

● Perform the following operation to convert permanent objects into images.

· In the [Text Properties] dialog, select the [Expanded] tab and check “Text Cannot

Be Edited”.

· When the [Expanded] tab is not seen in the [Text Properties] dialog, click [Tools] –

[Options] – [General], and check [Display Expanded Tabs of Object Properties] in

the [Others] box.

● Specify the Text Options (Text Layout) settings so that the text size is fixed.

■ Relating to bar codes

● Bar codes

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

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

the machine.

The following bar codes are compatible with the machine.

1D bar codes

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

(UCC/EAN-128), RSS, CODABAR

2D bar codes

PDF417, QR Code, Micro QR Code, DataMatrix, MaxiCode, Micro PDF417

・If data containing characters incompatible with the protocol are fed into a 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 and GS1-128 (UCC/EAN128) 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 feeds 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 feed 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 ・A bar code wider than 22.5 cm will not be printed.

・A one-dimensional bar code taller than 27 mm is converted to 27 mm.

・The number of characters that can be entered for each bar code protocol is listed below.

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

ITF (I-2/5): 1 to 64 characters

EAN-8: 7 characters

EAN-13: 12 characters

UPC-A: 11 characters

UPC-E: 6 characters

CODABAR: 3 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

RSS-14: 3 to 15 characters (begins with “01”)

RSS Limited: 3 to 15 characters (begins with “01”; third digit is “0” or “1”)

RSS Expanded: 1 to 64 numbers or 1 to 40 letters*

* ISO646 characters can be printed.

<<numbers, letters, spaces, !, ”, %, &, ’, (, ), *, +, ,, -, ., /, :, ;, <, =, >, ? and _>>

When trying to transfer data exceeding the ranges described 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.

● ITF (I-2/5) ・The bearer bar setting specified in P-touch Editor is invalid.

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

must be turned off.

・The linkage setting specified in P-touch Editor is invalid.

・If the value specified with the QR Code version command is outside of the allowable range,

it is changed to AUTO. (MODEL1: 0 to 14, MODEL2: 0 to 40, Micro QR: 0 to 4)

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

with those on the machine, the size of the bar code may change when it is printed with

P-touch Template.

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

・The linkage setting specified in P-touch Editor is invalid.

● DataMatrix ・The linkage setting specified in P-touch Editor is invalid.

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

● MaxiCode ・The linkage setting specified in P-touch Editor is invalid. It is linked when too much data is

entered.

・When specifying the country code and service class with P-touch Editor, the number is

entered at the beginning if the maximum number of characters is not reached. However,

with the main unit, the number is entered at the end.

Example: “2” is specified. → P-touch Editor: “200”; Main unit: “002”

■ 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.)

■ Relating to databases

・When a database is transferred, it is named using the file name + sheet name (when

created in Excel).

The file name can contain up to 15 bytes of characters (15 one-byte characters or 7

two-byte characters).

・A maximum of 99 databases can be transferred. However, the transfer cannot be

completed if the amount of data being transferred exceeds 6,784 KB (for PT-9800PCN) or

2,048 KB (for PT-9700PC).

・If there is a line feed in a cell containing text to be replaced, only the string of characters

before the line feed will be replaced.

・The text to be replaced can contain up to 256 characters.

・A database can contain a maximum of 65,000 rows.

If a database containing more than 65,000 rows is transferred, all data after the 65,000th

row will be deleted.

・A database can contain a maximum of 100 columns.

If a database containing more than 100 columns is transferred, all data after the 100th

column will be deleted.

・If there is no database linked to the template being printed, or if the corresponding string of

characters to be replaced cannot be found, an error occurs.

・If columns linked to the template being printed are not in the database, the objects related

to those columns remain as they were when the template was transferred.

・Depending on the language of the computer used for transferring, either the Western

European or the Eastern European character set is used for characters within databases.

■ Relating to Numbering

・A single template can contain a maximum of 9 valid Numbering objects. Numbering will

not be performed for Numbering objects that exceed the maximum of 9.

・A single object contains a single Numbering field.

・A Numbering field can contain a maximum of 15 digits. If the field contains more than 15

digits, Numbering will only be performed with the last 15 digits.

・Only Numbering fields will be saved in Numbering objects when printing is finished.

・If the number of characters that was fed in is less than the number of characters in the

Numbering object, it may not be printed correctly.

*Numbering objects refer to text objects or bar code objects that have the Numbering

function applied.

■ Others

・A maximum of 99 templates can be transferred. However, the transfer cannot be

completed if the amount of data being transferred exceeds 6,784 KB (for PT-9800PCN) or

2,048 KB (for PT-9700PC).

・A single template can contain a maximum of 50 objects. When trying to transfer more than

50 objects, an error will occur and the transfer cannot be completed.

・A single template can contain a total of 1,000 lines. If it exceeds this limit, an error will occur

during printing.

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

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

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

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

・When a template is transferred to the machine, all values specified with dynamic

commands are initialized.

・This is not compatible with split labels.

・After printing from P-touch Editor, the command mode changes to raster mode. In order to

print a template, select the P-touch Template mode in the P-touch Template Settings tool or,

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

turn the machine off, then on again to enter P-touch Template mode.

Precautions

Static commands are valid only in raster mode.

Example: To dynamically change the template selection number to 10

1) Switch to raster mode.

ESC i a 01h (1Bh 69h 61h 01h)

2) Select template number 10.

ESC i X n 2 01h 00h 0Ah

(1Bh 69h 58h 6Eh 32h 01h 00h 0Ah)

3) Dynamically enter the P-touch Template mode.
