    Why ink ribbon is separated from the ink roller of Brother Label Maker?
    • J
      Jennifer BrownSep 5, 2025
      The ink ribbon in your Brother Label Maker might separate from the ink roller if the ink ribbon in the tape cassette is loose, or if you pulled on the label as it came out. If the ink ribbon is broken, replace the tape cassette. Otherwise, leave the tape uncut, remove the cassette, and wind the loose ink ribbon back onto the spool.

    What to do if Brother P-touch PT-18R Label Maker is not printing?
    • S
      sabrinacurtisAug 20, 2025
      If your Brother Label Maker isn't printing, there might be a few reasons: * Check if you've actually entered any text, as it won't print a blank label. * Ensure the tape cassette is correctly installed and has enough tape. * If the tape end is bent, cut it off and thread the tape properly through the exit slot. * If the tape is jammed, remove the cassette, carefully remove the jammed tape, cut the tape, and make sure the tape goes through the tape guide before reinstalling the cassette.
