TROUBLESHOOTING

What to do when...

The P-touch stops

while printing a label.

• Replace the tape cassette if striped tape is visible, as this

indicates that you have reached the end of the tape.

• Replace all batteries or connect the AC adapter directly to

the P-touch.

The label is not cut

automatically.

Check that the Cut Option setting is not set to Chain or No Cut,

as the tape will not be fed after printing the label. Alternatively,

hold down the

Shift

key and press the

Preview

key to feed

and cut the tape.

Label files saved

previously are now

empty.

All files stored in the internal memory are deleted if the

batteries are weak or the AC adapter was disconnected.
