How can I minimize the tape margin?

Follow the steps below:

  1. Press Function.
  2. Continue pressing Function or press Left or Right until "Margin" is displayed.
  3. Press Enter.
  4. Press Left or Right until "Narrow" is displayed.
  5. Press& Enter to apply the setting.
  6. Press Print.
  7. Cut along the dots " : " with scissors so that the text is centered in the label.

    Sample

One inch margin that is produced prior to every label cannot be eliminated due to the construction of the tape mechanism. 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 "Numbering function"
  • Setting the margin to "Chain Print" - please make sure that you feed the label after the last label is printed, otherwise a part of the text may be cut off.
