Printing a Label
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.
Do not block the tape exit slot during printing or when feeding tape. Doing so will cause the
tape to jam.
Be sure to check that there is enough tape remaining when printing several labels
continuously. If tape is running low, set fewer copies, print labels one at a time, or replace the
tape cassette.
Striped tape indicates the end of the tape cassette. If this appears during
printing, press the
Power
key to turn the P-touch labeler off.
Attempting to print with an empty tape cassette may damage the
machine.
