BEFORE USING YOUR P-TOUCH

• Do not use the P-touch in any way or for any purpose not described in this guide. Doing

so may result in accidents or damage the machine.

• Do not put any foreign objects into the tape exit slot, AC adapter connector, or USB port, etc.

• Do not touch the print head with your fingers. Use a soft wipe (e.g. a cotton swab) when

cleaning the print head or the optional print head cleaning cassette (TZ-CL4) when

cleaning the print head.

• Do not clean the machine with alcohol or other organic solvents. Only use a soft, dry cloth.

• Do not place the P-touch in direct sunlight or rain, near heaters or other hot appliances, in

any location exposed to extremely high or low temperatures (e.g. on the dashboard or in

the back of your car), high humidity, or dusty locations. Standard operating temperature
