Inserting a Tape Cassette
Check that the end of the tape is not bent and
that it passes through the tape guide.
After making sure that the power is off, press on the
back cover opening grip and open the back cover.
If there is already a tape cassette in the P-touch,
remove it by pulling it straight up.
Insert the tape cassette into the tape compartment,
with the end of the tape facing the P-touch’s tape
exit slot, and press firmly until you hear a click.
Close the back cover.

• Make sure that the release lever is up when closing the back cover. The back cover cannot be
closed if the release lever is pressed down.
• Be sure to feed tape to remove any slack in the tape and ink ribbon after inserting the tape
cassette. Refer to “Feeding Tape” on page 22.
• Do not pull the label coming out of the tape exit slot. Doing so will cause the ink ribbon
to be discharged with the tape.
• Store tape cassettes in a cool dark location, away from direct sunlight and high temperature,
high humidity, or dusty locations. Use the tape cassette as quickly as possible after opening
the sealed package.
