The stock Brother Wire label templates are stored in the following location: C:\ProgramData\D-Tools\SIX\Templates.
All stock SI templates were designed to be used with 1" label tape. We recommend basing your custom templates on one of the existing reports, even if you are going to change the label width, since our templates already have the fields available to you. There is limited editing available.
This article was written with Brother P-Touch 5.1 in mind.
1/ Launch the Brother P-Touch software.
2/ Click Open and then browse to the following location: C:\ProgramData\D-Tools\SIX\Templates.
3/ Change the Files of type option to All Layout Files.
4/ Select the one you wish to edit. The flag labels have images on them, but the wrap labels do not.
5/ Double-click the file or click the Open button.
The file will open, and you will see in this example of a flag label that only three fields are available, duplicated for each side of the label: an image field, a message field, and a text field.
The image is just an image field.
The "message1" and "message2" fields will display a custom message if you choose this option in the Brother Wire Label Printer interface.
The "text1" and "text2" fields will display your chosen fields via the Field Chooser within the Brother Wire Label Printer interface.
So, all you can modify on these label templates are:
Changing the image file
Removing fields
Changing the width of the labels and fields for a different width label cartridge
6/ To change the image file, select one of the image fields, right-click, and choose Change Image.
7/ Browse to your desired image and then repeat for the image field.
8/ When done, click File > Save As and name and save your new template to the following location: C:\ProgramData\D-Tools\SIX\Templates.
9/ Click Yes when prompted to save in the previous version format.
