Inserting a Tape Cassette
Tape cassettes of 3.5mm, 6mm, 9mm, 12mm, 18mm or 24mm width, and Tube cassettes of
5.8mm, 8.8mm, 11.7mm, 17.7mm or 23.6mm width can be used in your P-touch labeling
system. Use only Brother tape cassettes with the / / mark.
Check that the end of the tape is not bent and that it passes
through the tape guide. If the tape is not passed through, pass it
through the tape guide as shown in the illustration.

After making sure that the power is off, place the P-touch
labeling system on a flat surface as shown in the illustration,
and then open the rear cover. If there is already a tape
cassette in the P-touch labeling system, remove it by pulling
it straight up.
Insert the tape cassette into the tape compartment, with
the end of the tape facing the P-touch labeling system's
tape exit slot, and press firmly until you hear a click.

Inserting a Tape Cassette
If the new tape cassette has a cardboard stopper, be sure to remove the stopper
before inserting the cassette.
• 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).
