What to do if my Brother Label Maker is not printing?

  If your Brother Label Maker isn't printing after you press the key, here are a few things to check: * Make sure you've actually entered text, as it won't print if there's nothing to print. * Confirm that the tape cassette is correctly installed and has enough tape remaining. * See if the end of the tape is bent; if it is, cut the bent section and thread the tape correctly. * Check for any tape jams. If there is a jam, remove the cassette, carefully pull out the tape, cut it, and ensure the tape passes through the guide before reinstalling. * Ensure the tape compartment cover is properly closed.

Why is my Brother P-Touch 2100 not cutting the label?
- R
  Rachel LongAug 16, 2025
  If your Brother Label Maker is not cutting labels automatically, it might be due to the following reasons: * The Cut Option might be set to 'Chain' or 'No Cut'. In this case, the tape won't feed after printing. Check your Cut Option settings, or manually feed and cut the tape by holding down the key and pressing the key. * The tape compartment cover might be open. Make sure to close it correctly.

  If your Brother Label Maker isn't printing labels correctly, consider the following: * Ensure the tape cassette is correctly installed by pressing firmly until it clicks. * Check if the print head is dirty. If so, clean it with a cotton swab or the optional print head cleaning cassette (TZ-CL4). * Verify the Cut Option setting. If it's set to 'Chain' or 'No Cut', the tape won't feed after printing. Adjust the setting or manually feed and cut the tape.

Why does my Brother P-Touch 2100 Label Maker stop while printing?
- S
  Stacy TrevinoAug 25, 2025
  If your Brother Label Maker stops printing mid-label, it could be due to: * Insufficient tape remaining in the cassette. The striped tape indicates the end of the tape, so replace the cassette. * Weak batteries or a disconnected AC adapter. Replace the batteries or connect the AC adapter directly to the label maker.

Why is the ink ribbon separated from the ink roller on my Brother Label Maker?
- K
  Kenneth DickersonAug 31, 2025
  If the ink ribbon separates from the ink roller in your Brother Label Maker, it might be because the ink ribbon in the tape cassette is loose, or you pulled on the label coming out of the exit slot. If the ink ribbon is broken, replace the tape cassette. Otherwise, leave the tape uncut, remove the cassette, and wind the loose ribbon onto the spool as shown in the figure.

  If your Brother P-touch screen 'locks' or becomes unresponsive, reset the internal memory to the initial settings. If this doesn't solve the problem, disconnect the AC adapter and remove the batteries for more than 10 minutes.
