Troubleshooting

Problem

Solution

1

The display stays blank after you
have turned on the machine.

Check that the AC adapter
(model AD-60/AD-24) is
connected correctly.

If you are using batteries, check
that they are correctly inserted.

If the batteries are low, replace
them with new ones.

2

The machine does not print or the
printed characters are blurred.

Check that the back cover has
been properly attached.

If the tape cassette is empty,
replace it with a new one.

3

The text files that you stored in
the memory are no longer there.

If the batteries are low, replace
them with new ones.

4

The printed characters are not
formed properly.

If you are using batteries, they
may have a low charge. Try using
the AC adapter or replace the
batteries with new ones.

5

A blank horizontal line appears
through the printed label.

Clean the print head as explained
on Cleaning the print head,
rollers and tape cutter
on page 8.

6

Striped tape appears.

You have reached the end of the
tape. Replace the tape cassette
with a new one.

7

The P-touch has “locked up” (i.e.,
nothing happens when a key is
pressed).

Turn off the P-touch, and then
while holding down g and

R, turn the machine back on.
The machine will restore, but the
text and formats shown in the
display and all text files stored in
the memory are erased.
