  • For P-touch Template mode, templates must first be downloaded from a computer to the printer using P-touch Transfer Manager.
  • The barcode scanner should be programmed to use the English keyboard. For beginners, we recommend programming your barcode scanner with no prefix and no suffix characters. For advanced users, the prefix and suffix characters can be scanned and used as commands with the printer for creating customized templates.
  • Contact the manufacturer for more information on how to use and program a specific barcode scanner model.
  • Follow the recommendations of the manufacturer of your Bluetooth-equipped devices, such as barcode scanners, and install any necessary hardware and software.
