3 ● T o avoid injuries, do not touch the cutter ’ s edge. ● Use only Brother TZ tapes with this machine to avoid damage. Do not use tapes that do not have the mark. Brother cannot be held responsible for trouble or damage by the use of unauthorized supplies.
4 Remove the batteries and disconnect the AC adaptor if you do not intend to use this machine for an extended period of time. When the power is disconnected, all text shown in the display and stored in the memory will be lost.
5 A single TZ tape cassette is supplied with this unit. However, since TZ tape cassettes are avail- able for this machine in a wide variety of colors and sizes, it is possible to make distinctive color-coded and stylized labels. In addition, this machine has been designed to allow you to change the tape cassettes quickly and easily.
6 LAMINA TED T APE The enclosed stick enables you to easily remove the backing from labels printed on laminated tapes. 1 Hold the tape in your left hand, with the printed surface facing up, and hold the stick in your right hand. 2 Pass the tape halfway through the long narrow hole in the stick.
7 INST ANT -LETTERING T APE (RUB-ON TRANSFERS) Instant-lettering tape is used to transfer your text onto paper. After printing the text onto instant-lettering tape and cutting off the label, position the label with its non-printed side fac- ing up on a sheet of paper.
8 The label will not adhere properly to any cloth with a rough surface, such as pile or denim, or with a waterproof surface. Heat-sensitive materials, such as nylon, acetate or other similar fibres, are also unsuitable as they may be damaged when pressing with an iron at a high temperature.
9 F ABRIC T APE Fabric tape is used to attach a piece of fabric printed with your text onto garments using an iron. After printing the text onto fabric tape and cutting off the label using scissors , place the label on an ironed garment at the location where you wish to attach it in such a way that the printed text can be read correctly.
10 Occasionally, specks of dust or dirt become attached to the machine’s print head and rollers. This is particularly likely when you are using the unit outdoors or in a very dusty environment. If a section of the print head is covered with dust, a white horizontal streak may appear through the label text.
11 The Power key ( o ) is located in the lower-right corner of the keyboard. If batteries have been installed or the machine has been plugged in using the optional AC adaptor, the previ- ous session’s information is displayed when the machine is turned on.
12 RIGHT CURSOR KEY To move the cursor one character to the right: ● Press w once. ☞ If this key is pressed when the cursor is at the end of a line followed by another line, the cursor moves to the beginning of the next line. To move the cursor several characters to the right: ● Hold down w until the cursor moves to the desired position.
13 EXAMPLE AL T KEY To type in characters printed in color on the right-hand side of the keys: ● Hold down a and press the key of the desired character written in color . The Alt indi- cator on the left side of the display comes on while a is held down.
14 SHIFT KEY To type in an uppercase letter or a symbol printed in the top left-hand corner of a key: ● Hold down s and press the key of the desired letter or symbol. EXAMPLE The Caps mode is similar to holding down s . It allows you to type capital letters continu- ously.
15 The Space key ( _ ) lets you add blank spaces between characters in your text. It is differ- ent from the right cursor key ( w ), which just moves the cursor without adding blank spaces.
16 The return key can also be used to select an item from a list (e.g., add a symbol or accented character to the text) or to apply a selected setting. Some questions asking you to confirm a command may appear on the LCD display, especially when the function that you have chosen will delete or affect files.
17 To set the tab length: 1 Hold down c and press W once. The current tab length is displayed. 2 Press h or e until the desired length is displayed or use the number keys to type in the length. ☞ T o change the units (inches or centimeters) used to display the tab lengths, press M until the desired units are displayed.
18 The Delete (backspace) key ( * ) allows you to remove characters to the left of the cursor’s current position. It differs from the left cursor key ( f ), which only moves the cursor with- out deleting any characters. The delete key can also be used to quit most functions and return to the previous display with- out changing the text.
19 To delete a sequence of characters: 1 Press f , w , h or e to position the cursor below the character immediately to the right of the last character that you wish to delete. 2 Hold down * until all of the characters that you wish to delete are deleted.

29 With the Font function, you can choose one of two fonts for your text. The following font settings are available: The default font setting is FONT 1 .
30 The character size can be adjusted using both the Size and Width functions. Since the charac- ter size that can be used depends on the width of the tape, the following table shows the char- acter sizes that can be used with each tape width.

36 EXAMPLE The Tape margin function allows you to adjust the size of the margins on the left and right sides of your text.

41 The Auto cut function allows you to set whether or not the machine will automatically cut each label after it is printed. Turn on the Auto cut function before starting to print in order to cut the labels automatically after printing them.
42 After you have entered your text and chosen the desired format settings, you are ready to print. ☞ If the Auto cut function is set to ON , the label will automatically be cut after it is printed.
