Installing a tape cartridge
There are three simple steps to installing a tape cartridge: adjusting the
tape cartridge receptacle to accommodate the width of the tape,
dropping in the cartridge, and feeding the tape through the advance
rollers.
Adjusting the printer tape receptacle
Since the printer accepts tape widths from .5 inches (25 mm) to 4 inches
(102 mm), you must adjust the tape cartridge receptacle inside the
printer for the cartridge you are installing.
Figure 2-5 shows the tape width guide inside the printer, and Figure 2-6
shows you where that guide is located inside your printer.
