Notes on cleaning the tape cutter
☞
If the tape cannot be cut correctly, clean the tape cutter blades.
Optional AC Adapter
When printing a large number of labels or labels that contain a large amount of text, it may be
useful to connect the P-touch to a standard electrical outlet using the optional AC adapter.
Connecting the AC adapter
Notes on the AC adapter
☞
Only use the AC adapter designed exclusively for this machine.
☞
Disconnect the AC adapter if you do not intend to use this P-touch for an extended
period of time. When the power is disconnected, all text shown in the display and stored
in the memory will be lost.
Turning the P-touch On/Off
Press o to turn on or turn off the P-touch.
If batteries are installed or the P-touch has remained plugged in using the AC adapter,
the previous session’s text is displayed when the P-touch is turned on again. This feature
allows you to stop work on a label, turn off the machine, and return to it later without
having to re-enter the text.
Regardless of whether the P-touch is being operated from batteries or the AC adapter,
the machine will automatically turn off if no key is pressed or no operation is performed
for 5 minutes.
