•DO NOT touch the print head with your fingers.Use the optional print head cleaning cassette (TZ-CL4), the self-cleaning function of the printer or a soft wipe (e.g. a cotton swab) when cleaning the print head (refer to “Cleaning the Unit” on page 53.).

•DO NOT clean the machine with alcohol or other organic solvents. Only use a soft, dry cloth.

•DO NOT place the P-touch labeler in direct sunlight, near heaters or other hot appliances, in any location exposed to extremely high or low temperatures, high humidity, or dusty locations. Standard operating temperature range: 50°F to 95°F.

•DO NOT leave any rubber or vinyl on the printer for an extended period of time, otherwise the printer may be stained.

•Depending on the environmental conditions and the applied settings, some characters or symbols may be difficult to read.

•Use only Brother TZ tapes with this machine. Do not use tapes that do not have the mark.

•DO NOT pull or apply pressure to the tape in the cassette. Otherwise the tape cassette or printer may be damaged.

•DO NOT try to print labels using an empty tape cassette or without a tape cassette set in the P-touch labeler. Doing so will damage the print head.

•DO NOT attempt to cut the tape while printing or feeding since this will damage the tape.

•We strongly recommend that you read this User’s Guide carefully before using your P-touch labeler, and then keep it nearby for future reference.

•Markings made with oil-based or water-based ink may be visible through a label affixed over them. To hide the markings, use two labels layered on top of each other or use a dark- colored label.
