    Why is my Brother Label Maker not cutting automatically?
    • J
      Jason BeardAug 27, 2025
      If your Brother Label Maker isn't cutting automatically, it might be because the Cut Option setting is set to Chain or No Cut, which prevents the tape from feeding after printing. To address this, check the Cut Option setting. Alternatively, you can manually feed and cut the tape by pressing the feed and cut buttons.

      If your Brother Label Maker screen locks or doesn't respond normally, reset the internal memory to its 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 P-touch PT-D600 Label Maker stop while printing a label?
    • B
      Brianna Flores MDSep 3, 2025
      If your Brother Label Maker stops during printing, it might be due to the tape running out. Check if striped tape is visible, which indicates the end of the tape. In this case, replace the tape cassette. Also, ensure sufficient power by replacing the batteries or connecting the AC adapter.

      Wesley RaySep 1, 2025
      If the Brother Label Maker does not print after pressing the Print key, make sure that you have entered text and that the tape cassette is correctly installed with sufficient tape. If the tape is bent, cut off the bent section and thread it through the tape exit slot. If the tape is jammed, remove the tape cassette, pull out the jammed tape, and cut it. Ensure the end of the tape passes through the tape guide before reinstalling the cassette.
