Title:

Why do my labels have a blank horizontal line running through the text of the label?

Description:
A horizontal line can be a result of some dust or dirt collected on the surface of the print head. This can be corrected by cleaning.

To clean the printhead:

  1. Press  to turn off the machine's power.
  2. Disconnect the AC adapter.
  3. Open the back cover.
  4. Remove the tape cassette and the batteries.
  5. Clean the print head using a dry cotton swab to gently wipe up and down along the print head.

Caution

    To avoid injuries, do not touch the blade of the cutter unit or any metal parts near the print head.
