Question Help with File Processing (AWK)

Input File:
Code:
1234, 2345,abc
1,24141,gw
222,rff,sds
2232145,sdsd,121

Output file to be generated:
Code:
000001234,2345,abc
000000001,24141,gw
000000222,rff,sds
002232145,sdsd,121

i.e; the first column is padded to get 9 digits.

I tried with following:
Code:
 awk -F"," 'BEGIN{OFS=",";} {printf ("%09d\n",$1 $2 $3)}' testfile

But I am not getting the desired output. Somewhere I am doing mistake in printf.

irsend - basic LIRC program to send infra-red commands SYNOPSIS
irsend [options] DIRECTIVE REMOTE CODE [CODE...] DESCRIPTION
Asks the lircd daemon to send one or more CIR (Consumer Infra-Red) commands. This is intended for remote control of electronic devices such as TV boxes, HiFi sets, etc. DIRECTIVE can be: SEND_ONCE - send CODE [CODE ...] once SEND_START - start repeating CODE SEND_STOP - stop repeating CODE LIST - list configured remote items SET_TRANSMITTERS - set transmitters NUM [NUM ...] SIMULATE - simulate IR event REMOTE is the name of a remote, as described in the lircd configuration file. CODE is the name of a remote control key of REMOTE, as it appears in the lircd configuration file. NUM is the transmitter number of the hardware device. For the LIST DIRECTIVE, REMOTE and/or CODE can be empty: LIST "" "" - list all configured remote names LIST REMOTE "" - list all codes of REMOTE LIST REMOTE CODE - list only CODE of REMOTE The SIMULATE command only works if it has been explicitly enabled in lircd. -h --help display usage summary -v --version display version -d --device use given lircd socket [/var/run/lirc/lircd] -a --address=host[:port] connect to lircd at this address -# --count=n send command n times EXAMPLES
