• Be sure to feed tape to remove any slack in the tape and ink ribbon after inserting the tape
cassette, by holding down the Shift key and pressing the Preview key.
• 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.
