      If you're experiencing poor printing quality on tape, consider these potential solutions: * Check the position of the M roller lever. * Ensure the tape and ink ribbon are properly set. * Verify the tape width setting is correct. * Make sure there's no dirt or stains on the tape. * If the ambient temperature is below 15°C or above 35°C, try adjusting the “PRINTING DENSITY” in the OPTION menu. * Ensure the feeding roller is clean and no tape or tube waste is caught in the exit. * Adjust the “CUTTING POSITION” in the OPTION menu.
