Creating a Barcode Label
2
You can use the barcode function to create labels with one dimensional barcodes for use with asset control
tags, serialized number labels, and even POS and stock control systems.
Selectable “Barcodes” are listed in the Appendix. See
Note
• The P-touch labeling system is not designed exclusively for creating barcode labels. Always check that
barcode labels can be read by the barcode reader.
• For best results, print barcode labels in black ink on white tape. Some barcode readers may not be able
to read barcode labels created using colored tape or ink.
• Use the [
Large
] setting for [
Width
] whenever possible. Some barcode readers may not be able to read
barcode labels created using the [
Small
] setting.
• Continuously printing a large number of labels with barcodes can overheat the print head, which may affect
printing quality.
