2023 and here I am successfully repaired mine using this video! Thank you!!!
Thank you! First of all, I'm glad to know that this is a thing that happens, and I'm not the only one to put in a new cartridge only for it to not function properly. And thanks for saying that this thing was glued together; another video, which was about 3 minutes long and had only music and no commentary, just kinda glossed over that and showed the top being gently lifted off! I'm glad I didn't have to try begging to return it, or just call it a $22 loss.
Thanks. I thought I was going to have to send the cartridge to the landfill prematurely. I was able to save it because of your video.
Thank you so much for posting this video. Another brand new cartridge saved! :D
Thank you! I probably saved $20 learning how to do this.
Great video, thanks. Saved me throwing away a cartridge. One small issue with video is it is too dark. I had to take apart the old cartridge to see the correct threading of the spools. They are black on the black tape and extremely difficult to see.
Thank you so much Erez for your patience to make the repair and the video! (my tape was more co-operative than yours, thankfully!) We had THREE faulty brand new tapes, and we thought our old printer machine must have been faulty so we bought a new one! We live in a remote area so this took a long time, and I gave the old machine 'one last chance' when I found your video online thanks to Google - and it worked! The tape was the issue! As we live in a remote area, this fix has saved us $27 per tape (alas the first 2 'duds' were thrown in the bin weeks ago, but at least I have saved one) And also, when something breaks here and we have to wait for a new one from the store it takes weeks, so your video has also saved us Time. I wish I could send you the $27 but I will send you Good Wishes and thank you again!
I found this video to be excellent. I took the clear backing tape off then routing the black tape, after which replacing the stiff clear backing tape is easy.
Thank you SO much for this tutorial. It was a lifesaver!! 😱
Thank you! I fixed my cartridge!!! Your video was clear and nicely done. I didn't get the clear tape and the backing to line up perfectly so it is a bit off but not enough to really matter.
I thought for sure I would have been able to rethread this sucker without taking it apart. Thanks for the video. S saved me $22. The one I was using was brand new but bought it over 10 years ago so no way of taking that back for replacement.
just fixed my label maker tape with this video! Thank you!
This helped me fix 3 cassettes- excellent instructions!
Thank you for posting this! These dumb cassettes have sat dormant for a year+. Hard to see details in video, however, busting it open -made it all work out.
Might have been easier to see on my pc. Lol😛
Thanks! Glad I didn't have to throw away another almost-brand-new cartridge!
Amazing very detailed video thanks. I could wait for a new cartridge so got me out of trouble. Thanks again.
Thank you! Worked for me. Sad that such and expensive cartridge has this problem though...
Thank you! I got my P-Touch fixed!!!!
Thank you so much! Just fixed my cartridge!
Thank you very much! Very comprehensive video. For future videos zoom and lighting could be better but nevertheless good work 👌
My repair was a success! I learned a lot about both the tape cartridge and the labeler as well. Thanks very much!
Thank you. This worked!
Thank you! I was able to save a brand new cartridge.
It worked for me. Just did it. Many thanks!!!
Very very good. Thank you very much ! Greetings from Germany !
Thanks so much. Lifesaver. Great and informative video that did the trick!
massive thank you
Thanks. I broke the case but I still got it to work.
good job, I have the same "I FIX IT" pry tool, LOL, i love that name brand of tools, It is a running inside family joke to say "I FIX IT" after every little project at the house.... anyway, thanks for the video, I had the same issue and fixed it it 10 min. Better than spending another 15$ on a new cartridge.
worked a charm.
I like your tools, where did you get them?
Wow, very informative. Mr. Lee approves 🇰🇷 ^.^
Thank you Erez.
Thank you!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!
legend!
Poor lighting - hard to see black on black in low light. Also, didn't need to see several minutes on one operation (threading the black tape back in), otherwise helpful and thanks for the input
thank you for no music and the helps
a little closer in would have been nice but still great
ît s reparaid, wife feeling good
does any one have tips to prevent this from happening? i hate this machine.
not impressed with this label maker bought it brand new tried the sample reel and it jammed cant fix it so disaapointing
Mine is the exact same issue!!! But I dont wanna mess up my jobs supplies & i dont have the tools to try this
Its a lot of effort for an inexpensive cartridge. In terms of time it must have cost you about 10+dollars?
Doing such things yourself will improve your tinkering skills a lot. Knowledge/skill is worth more than money :)
I see this post was 2 yrs ago and not sure where/cost of your tapes Reg, but in 2023 at our store they cost $27 so it is well worth fixing!
