Notes on tape cassettes
☞
Before installing the tape cassette, make sure that the end of the tape feeds under the tape
guides.
☞
If the tape cassette to be installed has an ink ribbon and the ink ribbon is loose, use your
finger to wind the toothed wheel in the direction of the arrow on the cassette until there
is no slack in the ribbon.
☞
When inserting the tape cassette, make sure that the inner ribbon does not catch on the
corner of the metal guide.
☞
After installing a tape cassette, press
f
once to remove any slack in the tape, and then
press the tape cutter button to cut off the excess tape.
☞
Always cut off the tape before removing it from the machine. If the tape is pulled on
before being cut off, the tape cassette may be damaged.
Strong Adhesive Tape
☞
For textured, rough, or slipping surface, we recommend using Strong Adhesive Tape.
☞
Although the instruction sheet included with the Strong Adhesive Tape
cassette recommends cutting the tape with scissors, the tape cutter that
this P-touch is equipped with is able to cut Strong Adhesive Tape.
