Printing
In addition to the procedure you should follow in order to actually print, this part of the
manual also includes information on a number of other useful printing features and func-
tions.
Printing Precautions
• Never switch power off while printing is being performed.
• Make sure that the tape outlet is not blocked before you start printing.
• Make sure the tape cartridge compartment cover is closed when cutting the tape.
• Never operate the tape cutter while printing is being performed (indicated by the mes-
sage NOW PRINTING on the display).
• During printing at very high density, printing of very long text, or repeat printing of the
same text a number of times, the Label Printer may stop printing for about five seconds.
This is not a malfunction, and normal printing should resume shortly.
Printing a Tape
Printing a tape is as easy as pressing PRINT. Before printing, you can also use IMAGE to
display what your output will look like.
To print a tape
1. Press PRINT to print a tape of the text you have input and laid out.
• To stop a print operation that is in progress, press ESC.
2. After the print operation is complete, press down on the tape cutter button to cut the
tape.
3. Use scissors to trim the tape to the size you want, if necessary.
• After you print a tape, you can peel off its paper
backing and stick the tape onto the object you
want. Note that the tape will not stick on coarse,
wet, oily, or soiled surfaces. Also, you should
not try to use the tape where it is exposed to
direct sunlight or rain. Do not stick the tape onto
human skin.
• An easy way to remove the backing from a tape
and expose the adhesive surface is to bend the
tape near one of its ends. This should cause
the tape and its backing to separate, allowing
you to pull them apart.
