INTRODUCTION

With your P-touch 1010, you can create labels for any application. Select from

the many frames, character sizes and styles to design beautiful custom la-

bels. In addition, the variety of tape cartridges available allows you to print la-

bels with different widths and exciting colors.

Read this manual carefully before starting and keep the manual in a handy

place for future reference.

WARNING

• Always use the specified voltage and the suggested AC adapter (AD-24) for this

machine to prevent any damage or failure.

• Unplug the power cord immediately and stop using the P-touch during an electrical

storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.

• Do not use the AC adapter in places of high humidity such as bathrooms.

• Do not overload the power cord.

• Do not place heavy objects on, or damage the power cord or plug. Do not forcibly bend

or pull the power cord. When disconnecting the power cord from the power outlet,

always hold the plug.

• To prevent fire or electric shock, make sure that the plug is fully inserted to the power

outlet. Do not use an outlet that is loose.

• Do not get the machine/AC adapter/power plug wet, such as by handling them with

wet hands or spilling beverages on to them.

• Do not disassemble or modify the machine/AC adapter/batteries.

• Disconnect the AC adapter, remove batteries and stop using immediately if you notice

any abnormal odour, heat, discolouration, deformation or anything unusual while in

use, or in storage.

• Do not use metallic articles, such as tweezers or a metallic pen, when exchanging the

batteries.

CAUTION

• To avoid injuries, do not touch the blade of the cutter unit or any metal parts near the

print head.

• Do not apply excessive pressure to the cutter lever.

• Remove the batteries and disconnect the AC adapter if you do not intend to use the

machine for an extended period of time. (Note: When power is disconnected for more

than two minutes, all text & formats in the display will be lost. Language, Unit and

Time/Date settings will also be cleared.)

• To avoid battery leakage or damage, make sure batteries are inserted correctly.

• To prevent damage or breakage, do not drop or hit the machine/AC adapter or press

on the LCD display.

• Depending on the location, material, and environmental conditions, the label may

unpeel or become irremovable, the color of the label may change or be transferred to

other objects. Before applying the label, check the environmental condition and the

material.

• Any data stored in memory may be lost due to failure or repair of the P-touch, or if the

battery expires.

General Precautions

• Do not use the P-touch in any way or for any purpose not described in this guide.

Doing so may result in accidents or damage to the machine.

• Use only Brother TZ tapes with this machine. Do not use tapes that do not have the

mark.

• Do not clean the machine with alcohol or other organic solvents. Only use a soft, dry

cloth.

• Do not touch the print head with your fingers. Use a soft wipe (e.g. a cotton swab)

when cleaning the print head.

• Do not put any foreign objects into the tape exit slot or AC adapter connector, etc.

• Do not place the P-touch in direct sunlight or rain, near heaters or other hot

appliances, dashboard or in the back of your car, in any location exposed to extremely

high or low temperatures, high humidity, or dusty locations. Standard operating

temperature range: 10°C to 35°C.

• Do not try to print labels using an empty tape cassette in the P-touch. Doing so will

damage the print head.

• Do not pull the tape being fed from the P-touch, otherwise the tape cassette or P-touch

may be damaged.
