Problem
Cutter error
The printed bar code cannot be
read.
After exiting P-touch Editor Lite,
how do I restart the program
while the machine is still on?
I want to reset the printer.
• If a cutter error occurs, keep the DK roll compartment cover
closed and press the ON/OFF button. The cutter moves back to
the normal position and turns the machine OFF automatically.
After the machine is OFF, inspect the label outlet and remove
the paper jam.
• Set the label vertical to the print head as shown below.

• Some types of scanner are not able to read the bar code. Try
using another scanner.
• We recommend printing the Bar code with Print Quality options
set to "Give priority to print quality".
