FABRIC TAPE
Fabric tape is used to attach a piece of fabric printed with your text onto garments
using an iron. After printing the text onto fabric tape and cutting off the label using
scissors
, place the label on an ironed garment at the location where you wish to attach
it in such a way that the printed text can be read correctly. Cover the label with
another piece of cloth and use an iron set to a medium-high temperature (320 to 356
°
F (160 to 180 °C)) to press down firmly for 10 to 15 seconds. For more details, refer to
the instructions included with the fabric tape cassette.
The label will have a white background on colored cloth.
STAMP TAPE
By making a stencil from TZ stamp stencil film and affixing it to a self-inking stamp
film holder, you can easily create your own personalized stamps. To make a stamp
using your P-touch 1300, install a MEDIUM stamp stencil film cassette (3/4” (18-mm)-
wide stencil film with a 1/2” (12-mm)-wide print area) as described on page 7, and
then enter the text as explained below.
1 Use the length function to set the tape length to 4.1” (10.5 cm).
2 Use the horizontal alignment function to select the CENTER setting.
3 Use the tape margin function to select the FULL setting.
4 Enter the text so that it fits within an area of 3/8” × 2.2” (9 × 55 mm).
To check the text and its length, remove the stamp stencil film cassette and insert a
normal 1/2” (12-mm)-wide label tape cassette, and then print a trial label.
For more information refer to the instructions included with the Stamp Kit.
It is recommended that you use the AC adapter (AD-60) when printing stamps
since these operations can quickly drain the batteries. Otherwise the stamps
may not be printed correctly.
