 The large format TEC (Toshiba) printers must use code based labels. They do not print directly from a windows printer driver.
+<note important> All of the fields you are using on your labels must not contain any special characters. Some of these special characters are commas, open and closing brackets () or {} or [], greater than and less than signs <>, pipes |, colons :, semicolons ;, and single or double quotes " or '. All these symbols mean specific things within a code based label, so having them in your part numbers, descriptions, and comment fields will cause issues with printing your code based labels.
+To try and clarify why this is so important, here is an example of a code based label for the TEC label printers:
