4 GENERAL PRECAUTIONS • Use only Brother TZ tapes with this machine. Do not use tapes that do not have the mark. • Do not pull on the tape being fed from the P-T ouch. This may damage the tape cas- sette. • Do not use the machine in dusty places, and keep it out of both direct sunlight and rain.
5 BA TTERIES This lightweight and portable machine can be used anywhere by installing six (6) AA alkaline batteries . When you change the batteries, always replace all six at the same time. T o change the batteries: 1 Remove the battery compartment cover on the back of the machine.
6 OPTIONAL AC ADAPTOR The AC adaptor (model AD-60) allows you to use this machine wherever there is an elec- trical outlet. T o connect the optional AC adaptor: 1 Insert the plug on the adaptor cord into the connector marked DC IN 9.5V on the right side of the machine.
7 T APE CASSETTE A single TZ tape cassette is supplied with this unit. However, since TZ tape cassettes are available for this machine in a wide variety of colors and sizes, it is possible to make dis- tinctive color-coded and stylized labels. In addition, this machine has been designed to allow you to change the tape cassettes quickly and easily.
8 A TT ACHING LABELS LAMINA TED T APE The enclosed stick enables you to easily remove the backing from labels printed on lami- nated tapes. 1 Hold the tape in your left hand, with the printed surface facing up, and hold the stick in your right hand. 2 Pass the tape halfway through the long narrow hole in the stick.
9 PRINT HEAD & ROLLERS Occasionally, specks of dust or dirt become attached to the machine’s print head and rollers. This is particularly likely when you are using the unit outdoors or in a very dusty environment. If a section of the print head is covered with dust, a blank horizontal streak may appear through the label text.

11 Learning the Ropes.
12 DOOR LABEL EXAMPLE After you have inserted the batteries and the enclosed tape cassette as explained in the Getting Started chapter, let’s practice using some of the basic functions of your P-touch. We must first begin by turning on the power to the machine.
13 ENTERING THE TEXT Since all of the text will be in capital letters, we will use the Caps mode, which allows us to type capital letters continuously without holding down . Then, let’s type in the text in the same way that you would type on a typewriter or a com- puter keyboard.
14 Type the second word, “ROOM”, to finish the text. Now that we are finished entering capital letters, we can exit Caps mode. Once you have entered the text, you can easily edit it by correcting mistakes or simply adjust- ing it or its format. For detailed explanations of text editing methods, see pages 34 to 38.
15 PRINTING THE TEXT Several format settings are available, however, in this example we will use the default set- tings pre-programmed into the machine and print out our label. T o print the door label: 7 Press once. The message “COPIES 1/1” appears while the label is being printed.
16 ADDRESS LABEL EXAMPLE While making the multi-line address label in this example, we will learn how to create more decorative labels using the various format settings. ☞ Three-line labels, such as this address label, can only be printed on either 1/2” (12-mm)- or 3/4” (18-mm)-wide tape.
17 ENTERING THE TEXT Let’s begin by typing in the first row of text, the name “Bill Reynolds”. In a multi-line label, the return key ( ) is used to end one line and start the next one. The return mark ( ) indicates the end of the line. T o type in “Bill Reynolds”: 3 Hold down and press once, then release .
18 Now, we can enter the address: 29 South Main St.; Los Angeles, CA 88888. FORMA TTING THE TEXT Now the text has been entered entered as we wish. If it were printed, the standard default settings would be used. The text would be aligned on the left side with 1 ″ (25 mm) mar- gins and would not be framed or underlined.
19 0 While still holding down , continue pressing until BRUSSELS is dis- played, and then release . T o select the ROUND frame setting: A While holding down , press once, and keep held down to display the current frame setting. B While still holding down , continue pressing until ROUND is displayed, and then release .
20 Different format settings can be chosen either before or after the text is entered. The pro- cedure shown above can be used to change the other format settings. PRINTING THE TEXT If we want only one copy of the text, we could just press to print it.
21 With these examples, we have covered many of the basic features of your P-touch so that you can begin creating your own customized labels. If you have any questions about any of the functions or keys, refer to the appropriate explanation in the following section.
