GENERAL PRECAUTIONS ● Use only Brother TZ tapes with this machine. Do not use tapes that do not have the mark. ● Four different tape widths are available: 1/4”(6mm), 3/8”(9mm), 1/2”(12mm) and 3/4”(18mm). ● Do not pull the tape. This may damage the tape cassettes. ● Do not clean the machine with alcohol or other organic solvents. Use only a soft, dry cloth. ● Remove the batteries and/or disconnect the AC Adaptor if you do not intend to use your machine for an extended period of time.
BEFORE YOU START 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.
INSERTING BATTERIES The machine uses six “AA” size (AM3, LR6, SUM-3, R6) batteries. To insert batteries: (1) Turn the machine over. Remove the battery compartment cover by pinching 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.
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.
STARTING To start the machine: Press the ON/OFF key. The machine’s internal memory retains the last message created, and displays it when you turn on the machine. This feature allows you to stop work on a message, turn off the machine, and return to it later without having to re-enter the message. The machine has an automatic power down feature. If the machine is on, but is not used for five minutes, it will automatically shut off. The message will be retained in memory until the machine is turned on again.
CREATING A MESSAGE DISPLAY You are now ready to create a message on the machine. The machine’s LCD display is four characters wide. Actually though, you can create messages up to 55 characters in length. The four-character display is like a window which moves across your message. 1234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345 MOVING THE CURSOR You can review and edit different parts of your message by moving the cursor backward and forward.
CLEARING THE DISPLAY Before entering a new message, you will often need to clear an old message. To erase the previous message from the display: Hold down the CODE key and press the CLEAR key. Example ● Erase any message from the display by pressing CODE + CLEAR DEL .

SPACE KEY As on a typewriter, this machine’s SPACE key lets you add a blank space into your message. Note: Example The SPACE key and the key have different functions. The moves the cursor forward without adding blank spaces. To complete the message “Mr. J Smith”: Enter the initial “J”: ● Press SHIFT CAPS + J ¿ to input a capital J. ● Add a blank space by pressing A M SPACE FEED once. A AA A r.J CAPS STL UNDL/FRM ● Complete the message by entering “Smith”. A A AA A Mr.
SYMBOLS In addition to the letters, symbols, and numerals on the key tops, there are 57 symbols available in Symbol Mode. These 57 additional symbols are arranged into 15 groups, corresponding to the numbers A to O on the keyboard. Group No. A SYMBOLS Ü B + C • D [ ] E 1 _ 2 F ª 2 G Group No. Æ æ × ÷ = J K ☞ ° º 3 § ♥ I ☞ 2 SYMBOLS L 3 M N ★ 4 O H To input a symbol that is not on the key top: (1) Hold down the CODE key and press the SYMBOL key to enter Symbol Mode.
Example First, make sure that the cursor is located at the place where you want to add a symbol.

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.

Your text will be printed out. ● The number will automatically be incremented by one, and the text will be printed out again. ● The printing operation will be repeated until the number you selected as the last number has been printed out. When printing has completed, the following display appears.
MIRROR PRINTING 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.
TAPE FEED The tape feed function can be used to leave equal margins on the left and right 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.
Note: Example SPACE When “- ”, “# ”, “## ” or “### ” is set, press CODE + FEED to feed the tape after the label is printed and before the tape is cut. If the tape is not fed before being cut, some of the printed characters may be cut off. (See the illustrations below.) ● When “####” is set, the tape is automatically fed 1”(24mm) after the label is printed. If the tape is cut without being fed, a label like that shown in the illustration below is produced. 1” (24mm) ● When “printed.
If the tape is cut at the cutline, the text is centered in the middle of the label. The tape is automatically fed 1/3”(8mm) when “## ” is set, and 1/2”(12mm) when “### ” is set. ● Continuous printing When “# ” is set and three labels are printed continuously, the tape is fed and a label like that shown in the illustration below is produced. If “## ” or “### ” is set, the labels are printed with the appropriate margin widths. Please cut the tape on the “:” mark with scissors. 1. Repeat printing (See page 34.
