CURSOR MOVEMENT

Use only Brother TZ tapes with this machine. Do not use tapes that do not have the
mark.
Tapes are available in three different widths: 1/4” (6 mm), 3/8” (9 mm) and 1/2” (12
mm).
Do not pull the tape since this may damage the tape cassettes.
Do not attempt to cut the tape while printing or feeding since this will damage the
tape.
Do not clean the machine with alcohol or other organic solvents. Use only a soft, dry
cloth.
A TZ tape cassette is supplied with this unit. The Brother TZ tapes used with this machine are
available in a variety of colors and three tape widths (1/4” (6 mm), 3/8” (9 mm) and 1/2” (12 mm)).
You can view and edit different parts of the text by moving the cursor backward and
forward.
