• When using Fabric Iron-On Tapes, Extra Strength Adhesive Tapes or any other special tapes,
set "No Cut" to prevent the cutter from cutting the tape. Leave adequate space between labels
when creating and printing them, and then use scissors to cut the tape in the space between the
labels.
• The tape is not cut after the last label is printed when “Chain” or “No Cut” is set. Press the
key to feed and cut tape automatically, or cut the tape manually if you are using tape that
cannot be cut by the cutter.
