Best Code Language for a Basic Software

My company sells product that we assign lot numbers to. This product is cut off of throughout the day based upon orders so we need to keep track of quantity on each roll using lot numbers. The lot numbers are basically to tell which roll is which and nothing to do with date stamps or manufacturing lots.

Currently my receiving guys make up lot numbers on the fly because the numbers themselves don’t matter (I plan on changing this). I want to code a piece of software that can spit out lot numbers, random or with a meaning. This would be hooked up to thermo label printer so each roll of product can have its own lot code.

I know nothing about coding. Literally nothing. I think it might be fun to try to take this project on myself. What coding language should I look in to for a task as this? This will be Windows based and shouldn’t need to be integrated with any other software, other than the printer driver.

Or better yet, is there something already out there that can do this?
