Database-Assisted Label Printing - Brother RJ-3050 User Manual

Printing Labels Using P-touch Template (RJ-3150 Only)

Database-assisted Label Printing

By linking objects in a label layout to a database, then scanning the key barcodes for the database, labels
can be printed with objects in the template replaced with database data.
Note
• The key barcode is the barcode for the information appearing in the database file, in the leftmost column
of record view (field "A" in form view). These key barcodes must be created in advance.
• 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 barcode is
scanned with the barcode reader. Therefore, enter only one line of data into the information in field "A" of
the form view.
• For details on the barcodes that can be scanned for the various settings, refer to List of Barcodes for
Specifying Settings on page 186.
