The P-touch Quick Editor software provides quick

Installer icon in the folder that appears. The
installer starts up.

Clicking the Install button immediately starts
installing the most basic options.
About 30 MB of available hard-disk space is

are available on the enclosed CD-ROM: P-touch Quick Editor and P-touch Editor Ver. 3.1
