Printing
This part of the manual includes all the information you need to print tapes. It
also tells you how to print special stamp tapes that you can attach to an optional
stamp holder to create your own original stamps.
Printing Precautions
•
Never turn power off while printing is being performed.
•
Make sure that the tape outlet is not blocked before you start printing.
•
Never operate the tape cutter while printer is being performed (indicated by
the message “NOW PRINTING” on the display).
•
During printing at very high density, printing of very long text, or repeat printing
of the same text a number of times, the Label Printer may stop printing for
about five seconds. This is not a malfunction, and normal printing should
resume shortly (indicated by the message “NOW PRINTING” on the display).
Important!
•
Never touch the tape cutter while a tape cut operation is being performed.
Doing so can result in cuts and other personal injury.
Printing a Tape
Printing a tape is as easy as pressing the PRINT key.
To print a tape
1. Press the PRINT key to print a tape of the text you have input and laid out.
•
To stop a print operation that is in progress, press ESC.
2. After the print operation is complete, press down on the tape cutter button to
cut the tape.
3. Use scissors to trim the tape to the size you want, if necessary.
•
After you print a tape, you can peel off its paper
backing and stick the tape onto the object you
want. Note that the tape will not stick on coarse,
wet, oily, or soiled surfaces. Also, you should not
try to use the tape where it is exposed to direct
sunlight or rain. Do not stick the tape onto human
skin.
•
An easy way to remove the backing from a tape
and expose the adhesive surface is to bend the
tape near one of its ends. This should cause the
tape and its backing to separate, allowing you to
pull them apart.
Mirror Image Printing
When you specify mirror image for text, it is printed in reverse image. Use mirror
image when you plan to print on transparent tape, with the printing on the inside.
When viewed through the transparent tape, the text will appear normal. You
can also use mirror image printing when using iron-on transfer tape to print iron-
on transfers.
