Set Margins

The laminate mechanism creates a margin of approx. 23 mm at the beginning of printing. You can reduce this margin by printing labels continuously.

You can also change the margin before and after the text for the second and subsequent labels when printing multiple labels. Select [Chain] to print labels with the narrowest margin width. DO NOT feed the tape until the final label is printed. When the final label prints, feed the tape, and press the Tape Cutter Lever.

Troubleshooting

If you need additional help, visit support.brother.com.

Problem Solution
The Label Maker does not print. •  Check that the Tape Cassette is inserted correctly.

•  If the Tape Cassette is empty, replace it. To order supplies and accessories, visit www.brother-usa.com.

•  Check that the Tape Cassette Compartment Cover is securely closed.

•  Check that the Label Maker is on.

•  Check that the correct printer driver is installed when printing from a computer.

•  Connect the Label Maker to your computer using the USB Cable (included) when printing from a computer.

•  If the Print Head is dirty, clean it with a cotton swab or with the optional Print Head Cleaning Cassette (TZe-CL4).

Problem Solution
•  The tape does not feed correctly.

•  The tape gets stuck inside the Label Maker.

•  If the tape is bent, cut off the bent section.

•  If the tape is jammed, remove the Tape Cassette, remove the jammed tape, and then cut any damaged tape.

•  Check that the end of the tape exits through the Tape Guide.

•  Confirm that the tape is pointed at the Tape Exit Slot.

•  Remove the Tape Cassette and insert it again.

The screen is locked, or the Label Maker does not operate normally. Refer to the Basic Operations section in this guide and reset the Label Maker’s internal memory to the factory settings. If resetting the Label Maker does not solve the problem, disconnect the

AC Adapter and remove the batteries for more than 10 minutes.

The LCD remains blank after turning on the power. Check that the batteries are correctly installed or that the

AC Adapter included with your Label Maker is correctly connected.

The LCD messages are displayed in a foreign language. Refer to the Basic Operations section in this guide to select your desired language.
The Label Maker stops while printing a label. •  Replace the Tape Cassette if striped tape is visible, as this indicates that you have reached the end of the tape.

•  Replace all batteries or connect the AC Adapter directly to the Label Maker.

Previously saved label files

are not available.

All files saved in the internal memory are deleted if the batteries are

weak or the AC Adapter is disconnected.

•  I cannot install the Printer Driver even if I follow the correct procedure.

•  I cannot see my printer listed in P-touch Editor even though I have installed the Printer Driver.

If you cannot use your Label Maker even though you have installed the Printer Driver:

1.  Download the Printer Driver Uninstaller from your model’s page at support.brother.com.

2.  Use the Printer Driver Uninstaller to remove the printer information.

3.  Run the Printer Driver Installer again and follow the on-screen instructions to proceed with the installation.

The ink ribbon is separated from the ink roller. If the ink ribbon is broken, replace the Tape                          Spool

Cassette. If it is not, leave the tape uncut and carefully remove the Tape Cassette, and then wind the loose ink ribbon back onto the spool.Brother-PT-D410-Advanced-Label-Maker (39)

Problem Solution
Printed barcodes or QR codes cannot be read. •  Change the tape. (Recommended: Black on white tape)

•  Enlarge the barcodes or QR codes using the barcode application, if possible.

I do not know the firmware version of the Label Maker. Confirm the firmware version by pressing the following keys:Brother-PT-D410-Advanced-Label-Maker (40)
[Version Information]           /
When the label is printed, there is too much margin (space) on both sides of the text. •  Refer to the Set Margins section in this guide and select [Small Margin] [Chain] or [No Cut] for smaller margins. When you set [Small Margin], the label maker feeds approx. 23 mm of leader tape before every new label.

To save tape, set the [Chain] setting. After the last label prints, press Brother-PT-D410-Advanced-Label-Maker (41) and Brother-PT-D410-Advanced-Label-Maker (42) to feed the tape, and then press the Tape Cutter Lever.

•  The Label Maker feeds approx. 23 mm of tape before every new label. When printing multiple labels, you can reduce the blank space on the second and subsequent labels.

Select the [Chain] setting in the optional print settings. Then, print your labels and leave the last label in the Label Maker until you are ready to print a new label.

•  After the last label prints, press Brother-PT-D410-Advanced-Label-Maker (41) and Brother-PT-D410-Advanced-Label-Maker (42) simultaneously to feed the tape, and then eject and cut the last label. Note that the Label Maker will feed approx. 23 mm of tape before the next new label when you use this method.

The font size cannot be increased. The font is already the maximum size for the width of the label. Or, the label length has been set, so there is a limit on the font size to prevent exceeding the set length.
When multiple labels are printed, the last label is cut incorrectly. When Chain Print is enabled, feed the tape to eject the last printed label, and then press the Tape Cutter Lever to cut the label manually.
Problem Solution
I cannot update the printer’s firmware using the P-touch Update Software, Transfer Express, or Mac Update Tool. Restart the printer and then try to update the firmware again. Do not press any buttons during the firmware update.
