What does 'Cutter Error!' mean on my Brother P-Touch PT-2730?
If the Brother P-touch labeler displays 'Cutter Error!', turn the P-touch labeler off and then on again before continuing. If tape is tangled in the cutter, remove the tape.
What to do if my Brother Label Maker freezes?
If the Brother P-touch labeler screen 'locks' or doesn't respond normally, refer to “Resetting the P-touch Labeler” on page 70 and reset the internal memory to the initial settings. If resetting doesn't solve the problem, disconnect the AC adapter and remove the batteries for more than 10 minutes.
Why does my Brother Label Maker stop while printing?
If the Brother P-touch labeler stops while printing, replace the tape cassette if striped tape is visible, indicating the end of the tape. Alternatively, replace all batteries or connect the AC adapter directly to the P-touch labeler.
Why is my Brother P-Touch PT-2730 not cutting automatically?
If the Brother P-touch label is not cut automatically, check that the Cut Option setting is not set to Chain or No Cut, as the tape will not be fed after printing the label. Alternatively, hold down the Shift key and press the Preview key to feed and cut the tape.
