•Be sure to feed tape to remove any slack in the tape and ink ribbon after inserting the tape cassette. Refer to “Feeding Tape” on page 22.
•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.
•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.
