QDatabase-assisted label printing
First, a database field must be connected to
an object in the label layout. Then, when a
key bar code is scanned with the bar code
reader, the bar code data can be printed
replacing data from the connected database
file in the object of the specified template.
1
Connect the database file to the label
layout to be printed.
For details on specifying the settings, refer
to the “P-touch Editor Help”.
2
Transfer the label layout to be printed
from the P-touch Editor 5.0 to the printer
by using the Transfer Manager. (See
Software User´s Guide.)
The database file is also transferred.
3
When data is transferred to
“Configurations” in Transfer Manager,
the “Key Assign” number is automatically
specified.
4
Scan the “P-touch template command”
bar code to begin specifying the print
settings.
Refer to “List of bar codes for specifying
settings” (→ P.49).
5
Specify the print settings by scanning the
bar codes with the desired settings, from
the “Basic Settings” bar codes.
Note
O The key bar code is the bar code for the
information appearing in the database file
at the leftmost column in record view
(field “A” in form view). These key bar
codes must be created in advance.
O The database information in field “A” of
the form view must not include any other
data. In addition, even if the information
contains two lines of data, only the first
line of data is recognised when the bar
code is scanned with the bar code reader.
Therefore, enter only one line of data into
the information in field “A” of the form
view.
O For details on the various settings that can
be chosen by scanning the appropriate
bar code, refer to “List of bar codes for
specifying settings” (→ P.49).
