  • *1 Supports single Kanji conversion only.
  • *2 Data and files are retained for over 5 years by the built-in battery.
  • *3 When using other tubes (those whose inside diameter is not within the range of 2.5 mm to 6.5 mm, and thickness is not 0.5 mm), please run tests of printing and tube cutting before starting work.
  • *4 When the cut length is less than 3 mm and the size of characters is 1.3 mm (two-byte character) or 2 mm (one-byte character), there may be cases where the cutting line runs across the characters. When making half cut with a cut length of 3.5 mm or less, use the label tape of a width of 9 mm or 12 mm, and adjust the cutting depth.
  • *5 An optional attachment for marking strips is required. The built-in cutter cannot be used for cutting marking strips. The print pitch should be from 2 mm to 150 mm (adjustable by 0.25 mm). The correction of the total length value can be specified by 0.01%. The actual correction value is an approximation of a multiple of 0.085 mm.
