To reset your Brother P-touch Label Maker, turn it off. Then, while holding down the '3' and 'R' keys simultaneously, turn the machine back on. This will restore all settings to their defaults and clear the memory. If you need to retain your current settings and stored files, back them up to your computer using the P-touch Backup Manager before performing the reset.

Dr. Christina RobertsAug 30, 2025
If the display on your Brother Label Maker is blank or shows abnormal characters, first check that the AC adapter is properly connected. If you're using a PT-9600 model, ensure the rechargeable Ni-MH battery is fully charged. If problems persist, reset the machine. For the PT-3600, unplug the AC adapter for about a minute, then plug it back in. For the PT-9600, press the reset button located in the battery compartment at the bottom of the machine.

If a blank horizontal line appears through the text on your Brother Label Maker's printed labels, turn off the machine, disconnect the AC adapter, and (if you have the PT-9600 model) remove the rechargeable battery. Open the tape compartment and remove the tape cassette if there is one. Gently wipe the print head up and down with a dry cotton swab. Also, wipe each roller up and down with a dry cotton swab while rotating them with your finger. Reinstall the tape cassette, close the cover, and try printing again. If the issue persists, repeat the cleaning steps using a cotton swab dipped in isopropyl alcohol. If problems persist, the print head cleaning cassette (TZ-CL6) could be used.
