Do not install the wrong type of cassette
The printer can print on tube, clear tube, label tape, heat shrink tube, wrap around tape, and
4mm I.D. strip, but each requires a different type of cassette.
If a wrong type of cassette is installed, printing cannot be performed normally.
When printing on regular or clear tube
Install the ribbon cassette and tube attachment in the machine.
If the wrap-around tape guide or label tape cassette is already installed, remove it fi rst. Note
that the tube attachment does not come with tube; the tube must be purchased separately.
When printing on label tape, heat shrink tube or 4mm I.D. strip
Install the ribbon cassette and the appropriate cassette in the machine.
The wrap-around tape guide and tube attachment are not used, so if they are already
installed, remove them fi rst.
When printing on wrap-around tape
Install the ribbon cassette, the wrap-around tape cassette and wrap-around tape guide in the
machine. The tube attachment is not used, so if it is already installed, remove it fi rst.
What to do if the label tape becomes stuck inside the cassette
Ordinarily, the tip of the label tape protrudes from the cassette as shown in Fig. 1, but
sometimes the label tape becomes wound all the way into the cassette, as shown in Fig. 2.
In this case, pull the label tape out as shown in Fig. 3.
