FAQs
What makes this tape "matt laminated"?
The matt lamination gives the tape a non-shiny finish, which significantly reduces glare, making the printed text easier to read in various lighting conditions compared to glossy tapes.
Is this tape suitable for outdoor use?
Brother TZ tapes are designed to be durable and resistant to fading and water, making them suitable for many indoor and some outdoor applications, but prolonged direct sun exposure may degrade it over time.
How do I know if my Brother P-touch label maker is compatible?
This tape (TZ-M931) is designed for specific Brother P-touch models. Refer to the compatibility list in the 'Setup, Compatibility & Care' section or check your label maker's manual for TZ tape compatibility.
What is the difference between TZ tapes and TZe tapes?
TZe tapes are the newer generation with an improved laminated structure and often a stronger adhesive. While TZ tapes are durable, TZe tapes generally offer enhanced longevity and performance.
Can I cut this tape with scissors?
Yes, the tape can be cut with scissors. However, for a clean, straight cut, it is recommended to use the built-in cutter on your Brother P-touch label maker.
How long will the tape last if not in use?
When stored properly in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, the tape cartridge should maintain its quality for several years.
Troubleshooting
Tape not feeding correctly
Ensure the tape cartridge is correctly seated in the label maker. Check for any obstructions in the tape path. Try re-inserting the cartridge.
Labels printing with errors or missing parts
Clean the print head of your label maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure the tape is not wrinkled or damaged within the cartridge.
Tape jams in the label maker
Carefully remove the jammed tape, following your label maker's manual. Ensure the tape is not being pulled too tightly or too loosely during printing.
Labels peeling off surfaces quickly
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease before applying the label. Press firmly on the applied label to ensure good adhesion.
