1. Set up the printer from
the computer according
to configuration of the
host device.
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.
3. Transfer the data
(text) from the host
device, and then
print it 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.
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.
