GETTING STARTED
• Remove the batteries if you do not intend to use the
P-touch labeling system for an extended period of time.
• Dispose of the battery at an appropriate collection point,
not in the general waste stream. In addition, be sure to
observe all applicable federal, state, and local
regulations.
• When string or discarding the battery, wrap it
(for example with cellophane tape), to prevent it from
short-circuiting.
Tape cassettes of 0.13", 0.23", 0.35", 0.47" or 0.70" (3.5 mm, 6 mm, 9 mm, 12 mm or 18 mm)
width can be used in your P-touch labeling system. Use only Brother tape cassettes with the
mark.
If the new tape cassette has a cardboard stopper, be sure to remove the stopper
before inserting the cassette.
1
Check that the end of the tape is not bent and that it passes
through the tape guide. If the tape is not passed through, pass it
through the tape guide as shown in the illustration.
2
After making sure that the power is off, open the rear cover.
If there is already a tape cassette in the labeling system,
remove it by pulling it straight up.
3
Insert the tape cassette into the tape
compartment, with the end of the tape facing
the labeling system's tape exit slot, and press
firmly until you hear a click.
When inserting the tape cassette, make sure
that the tape and ink ribbon do not catch on the
print head.
