Why does my Brother P-touch PT-18R stop while printing?
Your Brother Label Maker might stop printing mid-label because: * The tape cassette may be running out of tape. Replace it when you see the striped tape indicating the end. * The battery may be low and the AC adapter is not connected. Either load the battery or connect the AC adapter directly to the P-touch.
Why is my Brother P-touch PT-18R not cutting automatically?
If your Brother Label Maker isn't cutting labels automatically, it's likely that the Cut Option is set to 'Chain' or 'No Cut'. When either of these options is selected, the tape won't feed after printing. Review the Cut Option setting, or manually press the key to feed and cut the tape.
How to fix Brother Label Maker when label is not printing correctly?
If your Brother Label Maker is not printing correctly, consider the following: * Ensure the tape cassette is installed correctly by pressing firmly until it clicks. * Clean the print head with a cotton swab or optional print head cleaning cassette (TZ-CL4) if it's dirty. * Check the Cut Option setting, as 'Chain' or 'No Cut' may prevent tape feeding after printing. Change the setting or press the key to feed and cut the tape. * If the message “Recharge Battery!” is displayed, charge the battery, as a low battery can affect print quality.
