Inserting a Tape Cassette

GETTING STARTED

Tape cassettes of 0.13", 0.23", 0.35", 0.47" or 0.70" (3.5mm, 6mm, 9mm, 12mm or 18mm)
width can be used in your P-touch labeler. Use only Brother tape cassettes with the

mark.

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 referring to the illustration.

After making sure that the power is off, open the rear cover. If
there is already a tape cassette in the machine, remove it by
pulling it straight up.

Insert the tape cassette into the tape
compartment, with the end of the tape facing the
machine's tape exit slot, and press firmly until you
hear a click.

Close the rear cover.

• Do not pull the label coming out of the tape exit slot. Doing so will cause the ink ribbon to be

discharged with the tape.

• Store tape cassettes in a cool dark location, away from direct sunlight and high temperature, high humidity, or

dusty locations. Use the tape cassette as quickly as possible after opening the sealed package.
