EF CD AB GH EF CD AB FABRIC TAPE 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. Cover the label with another piece of cloth and use an iron set to a medium-high temperature (320 to 356 F (160 to 180 C)) and press down firmly for 15 to 30 seconds. For more details, refer to the instructions included with the fabric tape cassette. STAMP TAPE Refer to pages 71 through 73 for a detailed explanation on using the stamp tape to make stamps. AVERY PAPER LABELS This P-touch can print Avery paper labels one at a time. Just insert a cassette containing AV labels in one of the three sizes available: address, return address and file folder. Once your label is printed, simply peel off the Avery label from its backing. 41 PRINT HEAD & ROLLERS 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 black horizontal streak may appear through the label text. Therefore, as with a tape recorder, the machine's head may need to be cleaned from time to time. To clean the print head and rollers: Turn off the machine, and then disconnect the AC adapter and remove the batteries. Open the tape compartment cover, and then remove the tape cassette if one is installed. 3 Print head: Use a dry cotton swab to gently wipe the print head with an up-and-down motion. Rollers: Use a dry cotton swab to wipe each roller with an up-and-down motion while rotating them with your finger. 4 Install a tape cassette, close the tape compartment cover, and then try printing again. 5 If a white streak still appears in the label, repeat steps 3 and 4 using a cotton swab dipped in isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol. 1 2 Print head Print head Print head Rollers Cotton swab The print head can be cleaned more easily if the optional print head cleaning cassette (TZ-CL4) is used. 42 For Your Information TZ -Ta pe -La AV be l POWER KEY The Power key ( o ) is located in the lower-right corner of the keyboard.

The machine will automatically turn off if no key is pressed within 5 minutes. [. . . ] See "Operational Assistance".
