Creating a Bar Code Label

• The P-touch labeler is not designed exclusively for creating bar code labels. Always

check that bar code labels can be read by the bar code reader.

• For best results, print bar code labels in black ink on white tape. Some bar code

readers may not be able to read bar code labels created using colored tape or ink.

• Use the "Large" setting for "Width" whenever possible. Some bar code readers may

not be able to read bar code labels created using the "Small" setting.

• Continuously printing a large number of labels with bar codes can overheat the print

head, which may affect printing quality.
