Model discontinued. This page is no longer updated.

When I turn on the P-touch, "English" appears. Why?

  • When the P-touch is reset to the default setting, this message appears.
  • Select your language (English/Spanish/French/Portuguese) with the cursor key and press the OK key.


The P-touch is reset to the default setting when more than three minutes pass after the batteries are removed, or the P-touch is disconnected from the AC adapter without using batteries.
