FAQs & Troubleshooting

I want to print without excess tape before the label.

Due to the construction of the tape mechanism, there is no way to print without excess tape before the first label. However, when you print more than one label continuously, the subsequent labels can be printed without the excess tape.

The following methods are useful for reducing tape use:

  • Using the Print Option to print multiple copies of the same label.
  • Using the Numbering function to print a set of sequentially numbered labels.
  • Minimizing the tape margin.
