Using Transferred Database Data

A database converted to a *.csv file can be transferred to the P-touch.
The data for a database that was transferred without a template can be imported into each
label application type. The database data is imported according to the number of blocks and
pages set for each label application type. Refer to "Selecting a Labelling Application Type" in
the Quick Setup Guide for details on setting the number of blocks and pages for each label
application type.
• Before using a database, transfer the database to the P-touch.
• If a database and template are linked and transferred together, the database can use only that
template.
• If the selected database range is larger than the set number of blocks and pages, the data will be
imported until the maximum number of blocks and pages is reached.
• If the set number of blocks and pages is larger than the selected database range, the operation
will finish when all of the database is imported. The remaining blocks and pages will be printed
blank without any data.
The print results are shown for each label application type when the databases for the
following examples are imported.
