INSERTING A TAPE CASSETTE

Brother TZ tapes are only available in the following widths for this machine:
1/4”(6mm), 3/8”(9mm), 1/2”(12mm) and 3/4”(18mm).

To insert a new tape cassette:

(1) Lift the cassette cover so that you can reach the tape cassette easily. This will

also release the installed cassette.

(2) If there is a tape cassette already in the compartment, remove it by pulling it

straight up.

(3) Remove the stopper from a new tape cassette and if the tape is loose, use

your finger to wind it in the direction of the arrow on the tape cassette until it
is taut. If you are using a previous tape, ensure the tape is taut prior to insert­ing it into the unit.

Note:

●

Some tape cassettes are not provided with a stopper.

(4) Insert the tape cassette firmly into the compartment.
(5) Shut the compartment cover.
(6) Advance the tape by holding down the CODE key and pressing the FEED key

once, then cut the tape.

Note:

●

When inserting a tape cassette, make sure that the inner ribbon does
not get caught on the corner of the metal securing stand.

the latch and lifting.

(2) Follow the diagrams on the back of the compartment to insert the batteries in

the proper direction.
(3) After inserting the batteries, re-fit the battery compartment cover.
When “BATT” (Batteries Weak) is displayed, replace the six batteries.

●

Alkaline batteries are recommended.

●

An optional AC Adaptor is available. (Model AD-30:7V, 1.2A)

Note:

●

When replacing batteries, do so in three minutes or less. Otherwise,
unless an optional AC Adaptor is attached, any message in the work­ing area or Phrase Memory will be lost.

●

Note the following details when 1.2 V rechargeable NiCd batteries
are used in this machine.

(1) “BATT” will not appear on the display when the rechargeable

batteries are weak or empty. Instead, the power will turn off.

(2) Even after the batteries are recharged, the characters may not be

printed clearly as a result of a low recharging efficiency or the
operating conditions.

-7-

CHANGING THE CUTTER UNIT

When the cutter is not cutting well, replace it with a new one.

To replace a cutter with a dull or broken blade:

(1) Open the tape cassette compartment cover and carefully remove the tape

cassette if it is installed.
(2) Grasp the cutter with your fingers and pull it out.
(3) Grasp the new cutter with the tab on the protective film and insert the cutter

into the machine.
(4) Remove the cutter’s protective film.
(5) Insert the tape cassette, then close the tape cassette compartment cover.

WARNING: Be very careful not to cut yourself when replacing the cutter.

Note:

The expected life of the unit’s cutter is approximately 2000 cuts.

CAUTION

NUMBERING

The NUMBERING function can be used to automatically increment numbers
included in otherwise identical texts. For example, when printing text with a
series of dates (“JULY 4, 1962”; “JULY 5, 1962”; and “JULY 6, 1962”), the auto
count function will enable printing of all three texts in a single print operation.

To use the AUTO COUNT function when printing:

It is recommend to set the TAPE FEED mode to “#”, “##” or “###”. (Please refer to
page 39.)

(1) Type in message to be printed.
(2) Position the cursor beneath the number in the text to be incremented. Then

hold down the CODE key and press the NUMBER key. The display
changes as follows:

(3) The screen will prompt the selection of the last number to be printed. (In the

example described above, the last number would be 6.)

(4) Press PRINT and the text will be printed out. Printing will be repeated, with

the number specified incremented to the next number. This operation will
continue until the last number is reached.
Press the CODE + FEED keys before cutting the tape if the TAPE FEED mode
is set to “-”, “#”, “##” or “###”.

Note:

●

Before printing, you can press the DELETE key to erase the number
you have entered. Pressing DELETE again will exit the NUMBERING
mode.

●

The last number to be printed must be selected from within the range
1-9.

●

If you enter a number that is lower than the one originally entered in
the text, printing will be disabled, and an “ERR” (ERROR) message
will appear on the display if you press the PRINT key.

For this application, tape with a clear adhesive must be used.
When the mirror Printing function is used, characters are printed so as to be legi­ble from the adhesive side of the tape. If the labels are then attached to glass or
some other transparent material, they can be read correctly from the opposite
side. This type of label is particularly useful for attachment to the inside of shop
windows or clear notebooks, so that it can be read from the outside. For this
application, transparent tape must be used.

sides of the label. The margins can be set to any of the following four widths:
1/6”(4mm), 1/3”(8mm), 1/2”(12mm) or 1”(24mm). When continuously printing
labels, the labels can be printed without extra margins. In addition, this function
is very convenient when printing more than one label with multiple styles while
changing the styles each time a label is printed.
