P-touch Template 2.0 Command Reference Appendix C: Troubleshooting If printing does not begin (main most frequent cause) (1) The communication settings are incorrect. (2) The command mode is not in the P-touch Template mode. (3) The conditions for the print start trigger are not met. The following three types of print start triggers exists, but the current selection is incorrect. ● When the specified text string is received ● When all objects are filled ● When the specified number of characters is received If the settings described above are incorrect, use the P-touch Template Settings tool to specify the settings. The barcode is not printed (common main cause) (1) The size of the barcode is too big for the paper/the barcode is bigger than the print area If it is determined that the barcode does not fit within the print area, the printer will not print the barcode. Either make the barcode smaller, or correct the position and try again. - 111 - Appendix C: Troubleshooting
