• 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. The tape may no longer be functional
after the ink ribbon discharges.
• 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.
Extra Strength Adhesive Tape:
• For textured, rough, or slipping surface, we recommend using Extra Strength Adhesive Tape.
• Although the instruction sheet included with the Extra Strength Adhesive Tape
cassette recommends cutting the tape with scissors, the tape cutter that this P-touch
labeler is equipped with is able to cut Extra Strength Adhesive Tape.
Turning Power On/Off
• Your P-touch labeler has a power saving function that automatically turns itself off
if no key is pressed within a certain time, under certain operating conditions. Refer
to the “Auto Power-Off Time” for details.
• If the batteries are installed or the P-touch labeler is connected to an electrical outlet
by the AC adapter, the previous session’s information is displayed when the power
is turned on.
When you use alkaline batteries or Ni-MH batteries, the auto power-off time cannot be
changed. (The time is fixed to 20 minutes.)
