Assembling stamps
In addition to labels, your P-touch can be used
to make custom, pre-inked stamps for various
uses (optional stamp kit required). Simply design
your own customized stamps using one of the
pre-formatted stamp templates, and then affix
the printed stamp stencil to a self-inking stamp
film holder.
1 Install a stamp film cassette, and then for-
mat the stamp text in either of the following
ways:
a) Select a pre-formatted stamp template
from those available with the Auto For-
mat function (refer to page 59).
b) Type in text, and then set the Stamp func-
tion to ON (refer to page 59).
2 Print out the stamp stencil and remove its
backing paper.
3 Remove the frame from around the stamp
holder ink pad, one end at a time, and then
remove the protective seal covering the ink
pad.
4 With the glossy side of the stamp film facing
up, align one end of the stamp film with the
slit in the side of the stamp holder.
5 Hold the end of the stamp film in place with
your thumb, and then pass the stamp film
through the guides while pulling it tight.
6 Fold the other end of the stamp film over
the other side of the stamp holder and hold
it in place with your finger.
7 Fit the frame over the stamp film, and then
push the frame down into place.
NOTE
If an Auto Format stamp template is used, it is not
necessary to set the Stamp function to
ON .
NOTE
☞
If the stamp holder already contains a stamp
film, hold the stamp over a piece of scrap paper
and remove the stamp frame by pulling it off,
one end at a time. Then, slowly peel off the
stamp film. Be careful that the ink does not
splatter.
☞
Keep the stamp film holder out of the reach of
children.
☞
Avoid getting ink in your eyes or mouth. If ink
gets in your eyes or mouth, immediately wash it
with fresh water for several minutes and consult
a doctor.
☞
Keep ink off skin, clothes and important papers.
Immediately use soap to wash skin that has
come in contact with ink. Even washing may
not remove all ink.
