How to use

Insert a compatible label tape according to the manufacturer’s guidance, set the desired characters and advance the tape to the cutting position. Press the trigger mechanism evenly to imprint characters onto the label and release to feed forward. After completing the label imprint, use the integrated cutter or tear-off edge to separate the label, then apply it to the clean, dry surface intended for marking. For best results, align the tape and maintain steady pressure while operating to ensure even character transfer.

Usage recommendations

Use label tapes that match the specified 6 cm width and choose a tape material suitable for the target surface (paper, polypropylene, or durable adhesive film) to ensure long-lasting adhesion and legibility. Store the label maker in a dry environment and clean the character wheels periodically to prevent buildup that can affect print clarity.
