ATTACHING LABELS

LAMINATED TAPE

When you open the tape compartment cover of the machine, you will find a lettering stick in the upper right hand corner. This stick enables you to easily remove the backing from labels printed on laminated tapes, as shown below.

1Hold the tape in your left hand, with the printed surface facing up, and hold the stick in your right hand.

2Pass the tape halfway through the long narrow hole in the stick.

3Turn the stick three-quarters of a turn towards you and pull the stick away from you as shown below.

4Peel off the label backing.

Some tapes can be folded in half so that the inside edges of the two backing pieces come off the label, enabling the backing to be peeled off easily.

FABRIC TAPE

Fabric tape is used to attach a piece of fabric printed with your text onto garments using an iron. After printing the text onto fabric tape and cutting off the label using scissors, place the label on an ironed garment at the location where you wish to attach it in such a way that the printed text can be read correctly. Cover the label with another piece of cloth and use an iron set to a medium-high temperature (320 to 356 ˚F (160 to 180 ˚C)) and press down firmly for 15 to 30 seconds. For more details, refer to the instructions included with the fabric tape cassette.
