Due to the design and construction of the tape mechanism, it is essential to feed a certain amount of tape through the machine before the first label. However, by printing labels consecutively, subsequent labels can be printed without this excess tape.
The following methods are useful for reducing tape use:
- Click
on the command bar.
- Select [Tape size] - [Margins] to adjust the margin.

* This is an effective way to save tape although the left margin still remains .
- Click
on the command bar.
- Select [Auto Cut] or [Half Cut] and the number of copies.

*The left margin is produced before the first label, but not for the consecutive copies.
(If [Auto cut] is selected, the first part of the left margin is trimmed.)
- Click
on the command bar.
- Select [Auto Cut] or [Half Cut], and [Chain Printing] as below.

No cutting procedure is done at this stage.
(If [Auto cut] is selected, the first part of the left margin is trimmed.)
- Create the next label and set the print options in the same way as above.
- Cut the label by pushing the Feed/Cut button on the front panel of the PT-9500PC after the last label has printed.
