General Precautions

• Depending on the location, material, and environmental conditions, the label may
unpeel or become irremovable, the color of the label may change or be
transferred to other objects. Before applying the label, check the environmental
conditions and the material.
• Do not use the P-touch labeler in any way or for any purpose not described in this
guide. Doing so may result in accidents or damage the P-touch labeler.
• Use only Brother TZe tapes with the P-touch labeler. Do not use tapes that do not
have the mark.
• Only use a soft, dry cloth to clean the labeler; never use alcohol or other organic
solvents.
• Use a soft wipe to clean the print head; never touch the print head.
• Do not put any foreign objects into the tape exit slot, AC adapter connector or
USB port, etc.
• Do not place the P-touch labeler/batteries/AC adapter in direct sunlight or rain,
near heaters or other hot appliances, in any location exposed to extremely high
or low temperatures (e.g., on the dashboard or in the back of your car) or high
humidity, or in dusty locations.
• Do not try to print if the cassette is empty; it will damage the print head.
• Do not pull the tape while printing or feeding; it will damage the tape and the
P-touch labeler.
• It is recommended that you use the USB cable supplied with the P-touch labeler.
Should another USB cable need to be used, ensure it is of high quality
construction.

labeler, or if the battery expires.

files saved in the memory will be cleared.

(http://www.brother.com/) for further information. You cannot print frames,
pre-set P-touch templates, or use certain font settings when using Heat Shrink
Tube. Printed characters may also be smaller than when using TZe tape.
