Using P-touch With a Computer
(for PT-1650 only)

This P-touch is equipped with a USB port, allowing you to connect it to a computer 
running Microsoft

®

 Windows

®

. The enclosed CD-ROM contains P-touch Editor 3.2, 

which is installed together with the printer driver, Transfer Manager and Backup 
Manager.

P-touch Editor 3.2

 is a label-designing software that provides additional 

illustration and layout features enabling you to design more elaborate label 
templates and create databases. Once these label templates and databases have 
been created, they can be downloaded to the P-touch, where they can be used to 
print labels.

Transfer Manager

 is used to download data created on the computer to this 

portable P-touch, so that it can be used anywhere you go to create labels. The 
following types of data can be downloaded to the P-touch.

• Label templates created with P-touch Editor allow you to expand the P-touch’s 

capabilities to create customized labels.

• Databases created with P-touch Editor or in the *.csv format provide you with 

convenient access to large amounts of data (for example, customer lists and 
inventory), which can be used to print labels.

• User-defined character images in the *.bmp format can be used to enhance 

labels with characters that are not available on the P-touch.

Backup Manager

 allows you to back up the following types of data from the 

P-touch onto the computer, and restore this data to the P-touch in case the P-touch 
data is lost.

• Label templates
• Database
• User-defined character images
• Label files stored in the P-touch memory

The P-touch Editor software and the printer driver must be installed before the 
P-touch is connected to the computer or turned on.

Only use the enclosed USB interface cable to connect the P-touch to the computer.

A single computer cannot be connected to multiple P-touch machines at the same time.

Although the P-touch can be connected to the computer through a USB 
connection, label layouts created in P-touch Editor cannot be printed directly 
from the application.
