You should still be able to perform some Label Printer operations, but some power intensive operations (like printing) may become impossible if battery power is too low. In any case, you should replace batteries as soon as possible after the “LOW BATTERY!” message appears.

Important!

•

All data stored in memory is deleted whenever batteries go dead and when you replace batteries. Be sure to keep written backup copies of all important data (text and documents).

•

Batteries can burst or leak and damage your unit if you do not use them correctly. Note the following important points.

•

Be sure that the plus (+) and minus (–) sides of each battery are facing correctly.

•

Never mix batteries of different types.

•

Never leave dead batteries in the Label Printer.

•

Remove the batteries if you do not plan to use the Label Printer for a long time.

Warning!

•

Never use recharged batteries with the unit.

•

Do not expose batteries to direct heat, do not short circuit them, and do not try to take them apart.

•

Keep batteries out of the reach of small children. If swallowed, consult with a physician immediately.

Battery Life

•

Printing of approximately four 18mm tape cartridges under standard printing conditions*

* When printing text or graphics that contain large areas of black, and printing under cold temperatures can shorten battery life.

Character size changes are applied to printed text only. The size of the displayed text does not change.

Important!

•

The character size setting is applied to all of the characters within the block.

You cannot make multiple specifications for specific characters.

•

The maximum character size you can print depends on the size of the tape you have loaded in the Label Printer and the number of lines of text you are printing. If the character size you specify is greater than the maximum characters size limit, the Label Printer automatically adjust your text vertically to fit as shown in the tables below. The message “TOO MANY LINES!” appears on the display when the character size has been adjusted.
