Peeling off the backing of a full cut label
Bending a corner of the label makes the backing easier to peel off.
HAPPY!
PPY!
x
Removing a label from a surface where it was affi xed may cause
adhesive residue to remain on the surface.
Important!
Do not try to affi x a label to the objects or in the locations described below.

(page 12)
x
Do not touch the tape coming out of the printer until it is automatically cut or
until printing is complete.
x
Avoid allowing tape cuttings to pile up around the printer tape outlet.
Tape cuttings around the tape outlet creates the risk of tap jamming and
malfunction.
Cut Modes (Auto Cutter)
When printing multiple labels during a single print operation, you can
confi gure printer settings that control whether or not there should be an
automatic cut between each of them. Depending on the type of tape you are
printing, use of the cutter can cause cutter wear and malfunction.

Cutting Types
The printer can perform two types of cutting.
x
Half Cut
Half Cut cuts only the sticker part of
the tape without cutting the backing
paper. This means you can peel labels
from the backing paper as you need
them.
x
Full Cut
Full Cut cuts both the backing paper
and the sticker parts.

■
Four cut modes
The printer has four cut modes.
x
To specify a cut mode, perform step 5 under "Printing a Label" (page 20).
x
Note that the cut method and margin length depends on the margin
settings.
x
Regardless of the currently selected cut mode, full cutting and half cutting
are never performed while
邊距 不留
(Margins None) is specifi ed for the
print format (page 30).
x
Tape cutting is not performed when the tape length is one of those shown in
the table below. In this case, you can use scissors or some other implement
to cut the tape after printing is complete.
邊距 小

Printing text that has a lot of black or performing continuous printing
can cause the printer to overheat. If this happens, printing will pause

Part 10 - Reference
Power Requirements
Your printer can be powered using the specifi ed AC adaptor or by
commercially available alkaline batteries.
x
Before using the printer, be sure to read the information under "Safety
Precautions" (pages 4 through 7).
Powering the Printer with Batteries
Use eight commercially available AA-size alkaline batteries to power the
printer.
x
Use a full set of eight new alkaline batteries. Use of mixing old batteries with
new ones can result in a mismatch between the battery characteristics and
printer specifi cations, making batteries go dead before their normal service
life and causing malfunction of the printer.
1.
Remove the battery cover on the
back of the printer.
Do not try to force the battery cover
too far open or otherwise apply
undue force. Doing so can lead to
malfunction.
2.
Load the batteries.
Make sure the plus (+) and minus
(-) ends of each battery are facing in
the proper directions.
3.
Close the battery cover.
Important!
x
Batteries lose capacity at temperatures below 10°C, which can tend to
cause the message
電池剩餘電量過少
(Low Battery!) to appear on the
printer display.
Use the printer in a location within the operating temperature range of 10°C
to 35°C.
x
Do not disconnect the AC adaptor or remove batteries from the printer while
printer power is turned on. After turning off power, wait until the display
goes blank before disconnecting the AC adaptor or removing batteries.
Otherwise, temporarily stored text, text stored in printer memory, user
characters, copied text, or printer settings may be deleted.
x
If you are operating the printer under battery power and wish to connect or
disconnect the AC adaptor, be sure to fi rst turn off printer power. Connecting
or disconnecting with printer power on can cause it to turn off and delete
unsaved text you are working on.
Battery Life
Under normal conditions, a set of new batteries can supply enough power
to print labels for approximately two 18mm tape cartridges.
x
Battery life can be extended by disabling the display backlight (page 54).
x
Printing labels with large amounts of black text or images, low ambient
temperatures, and storing the printer for a long time with batteries
loaded can all shorten battery life.
x
Even if you do not use the printer, you should replace the batteries at
least once every two years.
