Rechargeable Li-ion Battery
If liquid from the battery gets onto skin or clothes, immediately rinse them with water.
Label Printer and USB Cable
• Use the dedicated battery (PA-BT-005).
• When opening and closing the Cassette Cover, use caution to prevent your fingers from being
trapped.
• Do not touch the Print Head.
• Do not touch the cutter blade or insert your fingers inside the Tape Exit Slot.
Label Printer, Tape Cassette, or USB Cable
• Do not use in any way or for any purpose not described in this guide. Doing so may result in
accidents or damage.
• Use Brother Tape Cassettes.
• Do not put any foreign objects into the Tape Exit Slot, the USB Port, battery compartment, etc.
• Do not place in any location exposed to extremely high or low temperatures, high humidity, or
dust, such as direct sunlight, rain, near heaters, other hot appliances, on the dashboard, or in
the back of your car.
• Do not try to print if the cassette is empty; it will damage the Print Head.
• Do not pull the tape while printing or feeding; it will damage the tape and the label printer.
• The length of a printed label may differ from the displayed label length.
• Depending on the location, material, and environmental conditions, labels may unpeel or
become irremovable, or the color may change or be transferred to other objects. Before applying
labels, check the environmental conditions and the material.
• When printing multiple copies of a label, the label printer will not detect the end of the tape
cassette and will continue printing.
• Printed characters may look different than previewed, as your device's or computer’s screen may
have a higher resolution than the label printer.
• Printed small text may not be as clear as it is displayed.
• White and Gold printed objects may not always print clearly.
• The backing of some types of tapes may be pre-cut to make it easier to peel the backing. To
remove the backing, simply fold the label lengthwise with the text facing inwards to expose the
inside edges of the backing. Next, peel off the backing one piece at a time.
• Labels may be difficult to attach to surfaces that are wet, dirty, or uneven. The labels may peel
off easily from these surfaces.
• For rough and textured surfaces, we recommend using Extra Strength Adhesive Tape.
• Be sure to read the instructions provided with Fabric Tapes, Extra Strength Adhesive Tapes, or
other special tapes and observe all precautions noted in the instructions.
