Inserting a Tape Cassette
If the new tape cassette has a cardboard stopper,
be sure to remove the stopper before inserting the
cassette.
1 End of tape
2 Tape guides (The actual shape may be different depending on
the tape width.)
1 Tape exit slot
• When inserting the tape cassette, make sure that the tape and ink
ribbon do not catch on the print head.
• Make sure that there is no slack in
the tape, and then carefully insert
the tape cassette. If there is slack
in the tape, the tape will catch on
the protrusion (2) when the
cassette is inserted and become
bent or wrinkled, causing the tape
to jam.
To fix the slack in the tape, refer to
the illustration in step 1 and pull the tape outside of the tape guide.
• When removing the tape cassette, make sure that the tape does not
catch on the protrusion (2).
Store tape cassettes in a cool dark location, away from direct sunlight
and high temperature, high humidity, or dusty locations. After opening
the sealed package, use the tape cassette as quickly as possible.
